Frames do not work properly.

There are a few workarounds for getting the text laid out as in the example
above. But none of the workarounds are practical for daily work with a document.
None of the workarounds I have tried (frames, tables, columns) allow to use the
Navigator (F5) to rearrange sections with side heads. The Navigator is a very
powerful feature and major advantage over framemaker.

Additionally, frames do not support the "PATHETIC SIDE HEAD" of the example.
While called "pathetic", this happens unfortunately quite often. So, I do not
believe frames to be the proper approach.

It rather should be possible to have several paragraphs side by side. It looks
like in OOo a sequence of paragraphs must vertically always be laid out one
after the other. To me, the problem of side headings looks quite similar to
run-in headings (Bug 39582). The difference being the left and right borders,
which are the same for run-in headings and are horizontally one next to the
other for side heads.
