Now about the integration:

a) we do need a specification about the UI changes and how the actual
transliteration works. No Spec no approval by QA. If someone is to sum up all UI
changes and gives a detailed explanation of what the actual functionality should
be I'm willing to write the spec from that info if no other is willing to do
this task.

b) currently if we apply this new font effect from the format character dialog
the changes will not be persistent! This is of course because that new font
effect currently neither gets exported nor imported later on.
Thus we have to disable that entry for now in that dialog. That is the code for
all of it will get integrated but the UI entry will be missing for the time
being. The reason for that is that in order to get this setting persistent we
need to do a file format change. And in order to get that done we need to get
approval by OASIS for this! I'm currently in discussion with our members of the
respective OASIS group about how this needs to be done.
What is already clear that a proposal to OASIS for this change needs to be 
written! 
The last time someone wanted to added such a feature with file-format change (in
that case the overline feature) the patch provider had to write and file the
proposal. Thus be prepared that someone of you guys here may have to do this. Of
course our colleagues from the OASIS team can give you a helping hand for that.
Only later on when the proposal got accepted by OASIS, only then we can make the
new entry in the Format/Character dialog active. Otherwise either the feature
would not be persistent (i.e. about useless) or we would write incopatible ODF
which is not allowed as well.
