A new feature - ok. Well both me and my colleagues clearly thought of this as 
an 
error in the program. I mean it didn't do what we "told" it. That's of course a 
non-programmer's view of such problems (most program problems actually). Any 
regular user will consider it an error. Being sort of of in-between myself, I'd 
call it a design flaw (like most other problems I've encountered with OOffice - 
and of course MS office). I'm glad you acknowledge it as something missing at 
least :) - hope it'll be looked into soon.

Generally user interfaces should of course let the user know if it - even by 
design - doesn't do as she/he would expect. If not, I consider it a user-
interface bug. I hope in the future I can somehow figure out which problems are 
"by design" and categorize them correctly when I report them.

Thanks for your answer.

(I can recommend Jef Raskin's small interface book The Humane Interface - it's 
available here online: http://safari.informit.com/?XmlId=0201379376 )
