I'm afraid I do not see a lot of improvement in that bub. I do see some
discussions. But no patch or suggested solution. I'm sorry

I'm afraid you lost me there. I'm willing to do anything youy want me to. But I
do not understand what y'all would like me to give. Is the example doc not good
enough? Can you not reproduce the bug? Please help me to provide you with the
proper testing documents. On a side note, the description in bug 76817 comment
#3 is crystal clear to me. And very reproducable. I'm afraid I do not know waht
the devs would like more. If I would, I'd provide y'all with what you want in
the bug report you want. I'd like to help or provide input, but I really do not
know how anymore. Bug 76817 commnent #3 is so clear already...

In this hard dog eat dog worl I'm afraid the smaller fish has to accept that
the bigger fish is boss. Same thing goed for LaTeX (www.latex-project.org) and 
any other way to produce documents.

Best regards, Jansen
