Tickets/Topics

 * Open object preferences or options with F4 (and add description to
   context menus)
   + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=152978
   + since we cannot use a shortcut for multiple actions this requires
     to introduce a new UNO command which delivers it contextually (Heiko)
   + F4 is currently assigned to different commands in the various
     dialogs (Roman)
   + simply exec .uno:TransformDialog on F4 in Writer but not Calc (Cor)
   + this reduces inconsistency (Cor, John)
   + dislike the idea to block a precious shortcut by a not frequently
     used function (Heiko); function keys should be global shortcuts doing
     the same everywhere like F6 (a11y) or F2 (edit)
     + like the idea to have one shortcut for _any_ properties, though
   => go ahead

 * Show the current View Layout option in the status bar, without
   relying on color
   + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=146579
   + one option is to trust icon designers to create easy to distinct icons
   + draw a rectangle around the icon makes sense too (John, Cor)
   + same problem at the page view tab, yet with blue
   => try with a rectangle

 * Ease use of Unicode control characters for bidirectionality,
   e.g. RLI and PDI
   + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=152125
   + introduce UNO command that inserts control codes before and
     after selection (Heiko)
   + make existing LTR/RTL selection-dependent (Khaled)
   => let the RTL people decide

 * LANGUAGE SETTINGS: An option to add to writing aids
   + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=152441
   + requested minimum word length does not work for short words (eg "teh")
   + better to add the word to the user dictionary or to use NONE as language
     for the selection blocking the spell-checking
   => resolve WF

 * Improve Business Card Help Page
   + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=152122#c8
   + no need to make two different functions look identical (John)
   + option is to have one tab "Address" and put Private and Business
     under this tab - not worth the effort (Heiko)
   + or add "Address" to Private/Business - not solving any issue
   => NAB/WF
