        Issue Type: DEFECT
           Summary: Lack of visual feedback when typing in header with
                    "Text Boundaries" disabled
    Classification: Application
           Product: Word processor
           Version: OOo 3.2
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P3
         Component: ui
        AssignedTo: [email protected]
        ReportedBy: [email protected]

So, having set up a Linux box with OOo for my mother to use, I disabled the
"Text Boundaries" option to make Writer as similar to Word as possible. Today
she was writing a document, and when she reached near the end of the first
page, she couldn't keep typing, because she was typing in the header field
without knowing it.

Essentially, this is the issue:

When the "Text Boundaries" option is selected, it is difficult to tell if one
is typing in the header, save for the vertical margins on the side, which don't
really grab anyone's attention.

It would be nice for the header box (or similar) to appear when the header is
focused for typing, despite the user's "Text Boundaries" option.

Thanks!
