--- Comment #9 from Jean-Philippe MENGUAL <jean-philippe.mengual@libreoffice.org> ---
Hi,

I am at the origin of this idea to have it in LO, because I think it is a
feature which can be used by everybody, not only blind people. And beyond the
fact it would be more safe to have it maintained properly in the core, I
thought it was better as it enabled to have the feature in an existing
dialog/command, eg. Wizard.

(In reply to Samuel Mehrbrodt (CIB) from comment #7)
My take is: This is a very good candidate for an extension, but not for a
core feature.
This is a very specific use case and as you say, each bank has different

Specific I dont think, really, everybody needing to fill checks may like this,
in particular in companies where payment is by checks for some administrative
processes.


checks. Providing templates for all banks in the world is not LO's
responsibility.

And here you are right. The problem of our current idea is that just French
people can use it safely. I dont know how checks are in other countries. And I
understand LO cannot have in the core a so specific feature.

Regarding maintenance: The API is *very* stable. If you don't use deprecated
interfaces, you can expect your extension to work for many years without
changes.

So IMO this (despite being a good idea) is NOTOURBUG :)
