Also the problem greatly affects scientific and academic environments -
they need to follow certain rules and just can't introduce paragraph
breaks on a whim of word processor. Academic environments are very
important as they basically set person's habits for good part of life
and we want to be in there.
I still don't understand that requirement. What academic environment
does not allow the use of paragraph breaks? How can one distinguish a
paragraph break from a manual line break?
As OS already pointed out in his comment to i17171, this is *not* easy
to resolve. In Writer, we would either have to extend the length of the
currently used string type to 4 bytes or switch to rtl::OUString. In
both case we would have to check each and every code involving text that
the string index variables working on that text are adapted to 4 bytes
as well. Beside this, *very* long paragraphs tend to decrease the
performance of text editing, this has to be taken care for as well.
Best regards,
Frank
