Re: [Libreoffice] Fwd: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=37996

Hi Imacat,

        This really belongs on the design list; please reply only to there,
unless you have a patch or are seriously considering doing the work;
as/when you are committed there - then:

        libreoffice-ux-advise@lists.freedesktop.org

        is a better forum. My personal take is that the longer name is more
descriptive and helpful - if it fits into the normal Unix app selection
guis, but we should have a holistic solution for all apps, and the UX
guys would want to have some input here. Please take it off the dev list
though.

        Thanks,

                Michael.
