This is extremely cool, thanks for that! - and nice code too :-)

If you meant UI changes in the dialog, you can do them part of your
patch, or separate, whatever you prefer.

If you want to have user experience input on the changes, the best is to
involve the guys at libreoffice-ux-advise at lists.freedesktop.org, either
to check what you have already done, or to work with them on the design.

Please let us know when you have finalized the patch by sending a
[PATCH] mail to this ML, or via gerrit.  And of course, should you have
any questions, just ask, or reach us at the IRC (#libreoffice-dev at
irc.freenode.net).

Thank you,
Kendy
