Sorry for top posting -- on the iPad, and the ProtonMail app doesn't allow grownup formatting.

I use LibreOffice and largely hate it, precisely *because* it is forever adding mud flaps and fuzzy dice and other mostly useless "features." The processing of words hasn't actually much changed since about 2000, when embedding links became useful. 

I'd drop LibreOffice for whatever KWord has become in an instant if the fewer, angrier bozos over there adopted good import-export filters. KWord became infamous decades ago for importing files from formats to which it could not save. It got deleted microseconds discovered this "feature." 

Oh, for a LibreOffice that could itself be edited, allowing easy deletion of the useless complications that comprise about 90 percent of it . . .

I know its a bit off topic but why OpenOffice instead of LibreOffice? Open Office seems to have commits done just for the fun of it with no new features. There has been some tension in the two communities because OpenOffice holds the name/brand power knowing full well all active development is done on the LibreOffice fork, yet refuses to even acknowledge that.
