Hi UX-Advise, *,


Cons:
[..]
* visible cursor travelling, input sequence checking and detection of
writing mode that are only active for CTL might have a tiny
performance impact

Either it _has_ a tiny performance impact
or it _might_ have a performance impact
But qualifying a performance impact, that has not been measured, as
'tiny' up-front, is 'begging the question'.
(note: it is quite possible that the impact, if any, is
tiny/negligible... I'm just objecting to the biased wording of the
statement of 'fact')


Pros:
* One less entry in Tools|Options (in case it is removed completely)
* not treating CTL/Asian scripts as second class (<quote>not to
mention that "Asian" is a so ignorant
orientalistic term in this context</quote>)
http://dictionary.reverso.net/english-definition/Orientalistic
I'm quite confused as to what was meant by this quote.

* will work out-of the box for all users
No regression for any document that does not rely on these features today ?
(note: This is not a rhetorical question. I honestly do not know if
these options only impact the UI or if they also can impact the way a
document is rendered)

Norbert

Note: I have no strong feeling either way.
But I'd prefer if the discussion center on practical and technical
aspect rather than politically correct ones.
