Honestly - we can't cover every single corner case....The UX team is
responsible for thinking about the general needs of our users, corner
cases
(not saying yours definitely is) should be given the *option* to include
things but we shouldn't force a million defaults on everyone just
because
certain users use LibreOffice in a very specific case (such as having
three
documents side by side open at a time....)
That being said, I leave this to the design/UX team to figure out.

I agree with Joel, I think the design team must choose a way to work
with LO. Anyway, there's always space for personalization, and your
case, you can disable the sidebar and customize toolbars.
I think the current way of LibreOffice is the sidebar. We must take
into account that most of the monitors used by the users have a 16: 9
ratioalso 3 major OS can use "workspaces" or other form of multitasking.
I leave here the image of the mockup to which I referred:

I am happy for any change as long as customisation is possible, and a
valuable feature is not removed but tucked away for power users, like
the print directly still being instantly available as a right click and
not on the tool bar.
I think your proposals are great for the new comer to LO, the more
people that get started the better, especially with styles. But for
people who need to get through the work (6-8 hours a day in LO) every
click or scroll is a disadvantage. I think your mock up is great for new
users, but for me I know the name of the style I want, I don't have to
see it visually, and the more styles shown at a time without scrolling
the better (similar to present). I have a document with over 250 styles
in it and could dearly do with some style management tools to simplify
things without it turning into a real chore.
If less styles are shown then preferred ranking is by most used at the
top, or shortcut keys (alt-a to altz etc.) to pick a style without
scrolling.
