Pedro, I think you’ve been here enough time to realize that, as many
similar libre software projects, this project is volunteer-driven,
Are those volunteers writing software for their own personal
gratification, or are they writing it because they want other people to
use it?
and
that waving around your pet bugs without giving some support
(financial or otherwise) yourself is borderline offensive for those
who are contributing their free time… People are free to choose what
they will work on… And no, the age of a bug does not automatically
increase its importance. Just sayin’.

It's hard, but fixing paper-cut bugs is important. If we want LO to be
good software that is widely used, ignoring bugs like that is a good way
of losing users.
That's why I cursed blue murder when I was forced to switch at work from
WordPerfect to Word, and I don't think the situation has improved much
since then. :-)
Maybe create a GSOC project that is "fix papercut bugs"? It would
certainly be very valuable ...
Jus sayin' :-)
Cheers,
