But they have different size and position of the viewbox. I have written 
https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=124029. It has a 
document attached, where you can see the problem.

 If they don't, I'd consider to

It is only about the shape 'arc'. I do not see the problem for other 
shape types. The 'arc' has a special treating anyway, see 
msdffimpl.cxx#4513. Setting a special viewbox for the 'arc' shape would 
have no effect on other shapes.

There would be a difference for the user. If he changed the angle of the 
arc, he would notice, that the adjustment handles leave the rectangle of 
the resize handles and the sector might be partly outside the rectangle 
of the resize handles.

 Or maybe the view port were set to 0,0,0,0 as in

That is in the OOXML import filter and not affected here. The treating 
there is wrong, but it is a different problem.

Kind regards
