A good option is a scrollable list control, identical to the Custom Properties
tab, for all the properties except the multiline comments. Title, Subject,
Keywords, Contributor, etc. in the single pre-filled list (of course, unlike
the Custom Properties tab, here we don't need the "Type" column). It allows to
clearly show the list to the user, and not create a wrong impression that the
current solution does. It creates consistency (the two tabs - Description and
Custom Properties - look and feel in a similar way, and so the user doesn't
need to accommodate to the two different tabs). And it is a familiar paradigm,
used everywhere - in LO, and in all other applications and operating systems,
unlike this our unique invention implemented currently.
