Re: [libreoffice-design] Guideline for floating widgets

The floating widget is like a toolwindow, similar to compose a message. And I'm very happy that an 
accidental press of escape doesn't close this dialog (using Thunderbird as well). Resizability is 
permitted for dialogs in LibreOffice, though I dont find the guideline anymore (wait, it was a 
discussion on the mailing list [1]), in order to keep the content at place.
