        Great :-) it's an interesting choice of bug.

        I guess so.

        Might solve it; I'm not so convinced that not allowing the user to hide
them is not the real bug - but fixing it in either way would be fine I
suspect :-)

        Ah - there are plenty of these around.

        In general, I'd suggest you do what you think best and looks easiest /
cleanest in the code :-) if it's a really tricky one good to ask the
libreoffice-ux-advise@lists.freedesktop.org list - but they have some
more meaty things to worry about just now :-)

        Go for it - I look forward to the patch :-)

        Thanks !
