Tickets/Topics

 * Keyboard short cut to traverse over open modules
   + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=147219
   + could be a UNO command to access uno:WindowList or
     some Alt+W+<number> mnemonic (Heiko)
   + isn't it a question of the OS, eg. alt+^ switches between
     windows of the active application in Gnome (Cor)
   => function welcome, comment on ticket

 * MASTER DOCUMENT: In navigator 'Insert -> File' should be
   'Insert -> Text File' to be more precise
   + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=153666
   + agree with renaming (Dieter)
   + Insert from the popup menu is the same as Insert > Text
     from File... and unifying the labels makes sense (Heiko)
   + "Insert > Insert from File" replaces the current text while
     Insert > File adds the document into a new section (Cor)
   + rename to "Text Document" to make it clear what type of
     document can be loaded (Heiko)
   + could be misunderstood as ASCII text or RTF files (Cor)
   => resolve WF/NAB also to keep the help

 * In Writer, there should be 3 types of hyperlinks
   + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=153740
   + somewhat over-engineering (Dieter)
   + if, it should be done for all types (Stephane)
   + easy-hackable (Jim)
   + some options like a) different underlining, b) split the
     hyperlink section in the navigator, c) add icons (Heiko)
   + a) not so good, b) could have merits, c) clutters (Eyal)
   + hovering over the entry shows the type (Cor)
   => use case needed to make coding necessary

 * Request: Rename "Square" gradient to "Rectangle" gradient in the UI
   + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=154071
   + a) "Square" -> "Rectangle", b) "Quadratic" -> "Quadratic (square)"
   + +1 for a) -0.5 for b) with the explanation in brackets (Heiko)
   + needed for transition (Regina)
   + agree with both (Eyal)
   + we need to make sure that renaming wont affect legacy documents (Cor)
   + "Rectangular" and as a compromise "Square (Quadratic)" using the old
     name in brackets (Heiko)
   => do it

 * Impress: Improve search for animations
   + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=149015
   + easy-hackable (Caolan)
   + consistency is prime (Eyal, Heiko)
   => do it

 * Bring back the transparency option
   + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=154140
   + moving this option into expert settings make sense (Heiko)
   + it's also about accessibility (Andreas)
   + option is not specific to Calc; was probably added to deal with
     performance issues with transparency back in the year dot (Cor)
   + if it is a FAQ we should consider to bring it back (Cor)
   => will ask for more info (Cor)
