Tickets/Topics

 * Mark page center on horizontal and vertical rulers
   + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=148128
   + some indicator on the ruler and/or snaplines in Writer
   + good idea (Cor, Csongor) but(?) maybe as snap positions for helpline
   + no good workflow for Writer, precise handling done with Draw anyway
   + helplines do the trick out of the box (Heiko)
   => WF, but keep open for a while

 * Allow reorder of Sections using the Navigator
   + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=148236
   + unclear use case, can of worms (Heiko)
   + fun to have, but unclear how to position in relation to other content (Cor)
   + request to drag one section into another one likely WF
   => remove UX, suggest WF

 * Missing/unexposed ability to explicitly set the "language group"
   of a piece of text
   + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=148257
   + matter of principle as it does not make sense that setting a direction
     also sets the language and changing the direction of a run of text
     must not change its font (Eyal)
   + cannot judge on challenging the code basis (Heiko)
   => remove UX

 * Page Area in Start Center Does Not Respect Application Colors Scheme
   + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=148282
   + Start center’s hard-coded color scheme doesn’t work for
     high-contrast mode users
   + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=99116
   + thumbnails don't pick up the document colors (Rizal, Stuart)
   + waste of dev effort to recreate thumbnails on those changes (Stuart)
   + rather than using an arbitrary hard-coded color for the dialog we should
     prefer the system theme, which should fit in most cases with what was
     used to generate the thumbnails (Heiko)
   => fix the background color but don't update thumbs

 * Page preview, need toggle button for system colours <> real colours
   + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=139875
   + +1 (Stuart, Cor)
   + switching the colors is not a frequent interaction and well suited
     at tools > options; clearly -1 (Heiko)
   => remove UX
