I opened tdf#153106, because I was told that reopening the first one was not
the proper procedure. The main point I tried to convey back then was that the
changes that were made to the comment indicator were not as welcome as some
developers might had thought – to put it elegantly. I expressed not just a
subjective opinion, but rather a lot of objective points, multiple times.

The UNO toggle (which I agree with its need, convenience and goal, and which is
independent of the original report) was/is a secondary matter regarding the
discussion in tdf#153106. The fact that Heiko closed it as WF doesn't make my
objections invalid. I still claim that the changes to the comment indicator
were/are not an improvement, and that it should be smaller and not growing with
zoom-in factors. I am not going to mention yet again the many objective reasons
I raised back then.

This new report/request is mainly about the same: to (at least partially)
revert the changes to the (bigger) size and (growing) behavior of the comment
indicator. If QA wants to re-purpose this report, fine; but let's first be
clear about what the original reporter was asking, and about what the prior
reports were about.
