   * UI: "Format" button in outline/chapter numbering dialog not self-explanatory
     + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=108890
     + rename button

   * Drawing styles at the sidebar lack of background and border color
     + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=119729
     + easyHack, needsDevEval

   * CTRL+ALT+E isn't opening the extension dialog but inserts a "é"
     + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=119676
     + bug?, see also 118269 
     + why do we have a hot-key for that dialog ? (Michael) 
        + not only this – other shortcuts with ctrl-alt (Heiko)
           + can we bisect it, find & prioritize it ? (Michael)

   * Direct formatting control text Highlighting mode <Esc> not toggling off
     + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=119753
     + controversial; discussion postponed

   * Discussion about persona ongoing
     + https://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/design/msg08820.html
     + patch for now submitted by mkara https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/#/c/60432/
     + do we announce it is deprecated ? Find a better sol’n ?
         + in the past – Mozilla planned a more stable API (Kendy)
            + didn’t happen – some GSOC student worked on that.
            + unclear if it happened.
         + most ideal to proxy their content (Michael)

   * Image caption, inconsistency: caption for images is now "figure" and no longer
     "illustration"
     + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=119738 (high/major)
     + keep the last used caption enabled over sessions or store it with the
       template
     + having no category like it is the fact for legacy documents could go 
       with Illustration
     + problem switching language – counting starting from zero …
     + simple workaroud – change the caption – when app starts.
     + some want to revert the patch; would go back to the wrong way
         + set to high & major by QA – and involves l10n too.
     + ‘figure’ and ‘illustration’ are same string in NL & DE
         – not easy to fix.
     + who did the work in the 1st instance ? (Michael)
         + GSOC student; now not present.
             + mentored by Samuel & Quikee(?)
     => revert next week unless someone takes an interest in fixing ...

* Crash Testing (Caolan)
    + 3 (+2) import failure, 187(+147) export failures
      - new export failures are now fixed drawingml div-by-zero
      - others (~34) the doc ones are suspicious, not reproducible for me
         - tried to fix these; unclear if that worked
         - will see when this completes, if we get suspicious ones remaining
    + ~5 coverity issues
      - some warnings in a new external project – nothing serious.  
    + Google / ossfuzz: down for a while, build fixed again
      - 6 issues, 1 serious (solved)
      - icu build failure fixed
    + ?? ForcePoint, round 9
      - 5 issues
      - complicated, no progress this week
          - writer layout issues when exporting to PDF
          - perhaps in bad situations just crash-out etc.
          - perhaps will just throw an exception for the corner-case...
