            Bug ID: 89608
           Summary: TOC: Redesign of the Entries tab of the Index/Table
                    dialog
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 4.5.0.0.alpha0+ Master
          Hardware: Other
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: medium

Unfortunately the current layout of the Entries tab is very bad and think that
it could easily be improved on by displaying the structure vertically rather
than horizontally.

With a vertical layout, we could include buttons to reorder the entries, have
entries with full names rather than abbreviations, etc.

As a new set of eyes looking at this tab, i couldnt make heads or tails of it
until i watched a youtube tutorial on it (
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g8hknb9QwCQ ) and still didnt fully get it
because of the bad layout.

Then who would have guessed that @libreoffice would tweet out about TOCs (
https://twitter.com/libreoffice/status/570124298578477056 ) just a few minutes
after i went through TOCs and indexes and stated that it was possible to delete
an entry. So i tried to right-click and i tried drag selection and none worked
and who was there to rescue, good old Cor saying that i should press the delete
key. :D

Will start working on a mockup.
