I don't like that idea, because the Status Bar already has not enough 
space to show the essential things correctly.

A "Status Bar" is always at the bottom. Do you know any application 
where it is not at the bottom?

I would like to see, that custom configure of the font size is possible, 
but disagree, that another location would be better.

I agree, that the Tabs should get more functions. Ctrl-Click and 
Alt-Click are candidates for more function. I would like to see 
locked/unlocked. The current visible/invisible is already an improvement 
compared to old OOo. For more discussions on that topic read

I'm not sure, whether I understand you. It is already possible to drag 
the "Page Pane" to the right and the "Sidebar" to the left. What are you 
looking for?

Kind regards
