Present: Adolfo, Cor, Rizal, Ilmari, Xisco, Heiko

Tickets/Topics

 * Add 'Search in all sheets' option to Find toolbar
   + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=98270
   + auto switch and continue on the next sheet after last found item?
   + ask the user to continue on the nextg sheet similar to
     "continue from beginning" (Heiko)
   + mixing the behavior (Ilmari)
   + dont show again needed (Adolfo)
   + 'only' objection is that the simple/quick find bar is getting more
     and more complicated (Cor)
   + use a checkbox in the quick find bar "[ ] Search in all Sheets"
     (off by default) (Xisco)
     + would prefer to keep the quick fin d bar simple (Heiko)
   + reject the request as it's easy to search in all sheets per
     full search (Ilmari)
   => WF to avoid clutter

 * Add sortable counts to AutoFilter drop down
   + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=149984
   + mockup attached, adding a bit noise
     + visual noise can be reduced by adding a "pill/badge" styling,
       as in web frameworks Bootstrap etc. (Adolfo)
   + costs on performance unclear, ppb negligible
   + it mixes the feature AutoFilter with another function. Then there
     will for sure be others with different handy functions to add (Cor)
   + no good reason to not do it besides clutter and some ideas to avoid
     perf penalties including to make it optional
   => do it

 * Base: Dialog for User Administration couldn't be resized - too small
   when translated to German to show all buttons
   + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=149944
   + make resizable or use icon-only / menu button
   + generalized toolkit problem: GTK's widgets too padded out,
     not meant for dense UIs
   + dialog maybe not welded (Xisco)
   + button wall awkward anyway (Heiko)
   + could be difficult to change if hard-coded (Xisco)
   => look into it and realize actions per menu button or adjust
      the dialog size depending on controls (maybe weld it)

 * Constant Colors Fail WCAG 2.1 Contrast Ratio
   + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=149934
   + adjust and rename all hard-coded internal colors?
   + 800+ files to change
   + no value in changing the internal name COL_BLUE to COL_NAVY
     for example (Xisco)
   + afraid of UI tests when changing the RGB values, worth a try
   + little benefit as colors are later defined by the OS
   + lot of noise for too little outcome (Xisco)
   + benefit on a11y, perhaps involve Hypra for that (Ilmari)
   => do not change the names but give RGB values a try

 * Calc UI - Defaults in Find dialogue and toolbar
   + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=145292
   + change find&replace defaults and/or remember last user choice?
   + remembering last user choice sounds reasonable (Adolfo, Ilmari)
   => do it
