(As it is not the first time you report issues: please try to sum up your
descriptions. Not big blocks of text, but bullet point descriptions and short
sentences will help us getting faster what the problem is. Thank you!)
1)
That's the problem of the defaults: 45% of the users want it "like this", 45%
users want it "like that" and well-minded 10% think about an option to choose
the default or better, a wizard to define all the defaults and appearing at
first OOo start...
This "Compatibility" option has been set by default, not only to respect an
*import* compatibility but also an interoperability (what MS users know as usual
from their word processor) reason. OOo simply behaves the same as MS Word.
So, yes, we've done it in purpose.
2)
Besides the pure compatibility argument, one could argue about the both
behaviors in both ways:
- "It doesn't make sense to have a space above the first paragraph". -> your
point of view and I agree
- "I have set a spacing in the paragraph style so expect it to be displayed
everywhere". -> Another point of view which is also meaningful...
Considering this I will close this issue because of 1).
Maybe you could discuss this on the User Experience (UX) mailing list.
