Hi Andreas, I suggested it earlier, let me now strongly suggest it again - if you want actual, code-related or technical questions solved for real, please let's bring it to the attention of the developer community. Here's the way to get direct interactions: [1].

There was no answer on the question whether you'd want to provide the change yourself, so someone else jumped in & did it (after having offered it). That's helpful IMO. > In addition the new patch breaks the connection to two downstream > consumer projects and to the LibreOffice online repository too. > We should discuss technical needs of downstream projects on the dev list. Can you please follow-up there? It would be of particular interest, where those downstream git repos are hosted, and what platforms they build for.
