callout shapes available in MS Office 365 and OnlyOffice

I completely agree with you that if there's a good idea that would place LO
ahead of others, we should go for it! Just pointing out one type of argument
used in turning down (or supporting) requests of this type in the past :)

So your suggestion would be something like the existing shape "Double Bracket"
(or "Double Brace") with a connector attached like "Line Connector" 1, 2 and 3
have. Constructing it like that would be the current workaround. Right?

Our current callout shapes collection only have 7 elements. OnlyOffice and MS
Office 365 have 16 (the same ones).
So I agree we could offer more, but one could argue a higher priority would be
to cover the ones coming from other suites.
