This very useful, sensible, evidently implementable (in standard and
non-standard applications) feature request will be ten years old in May next
year (see <a href="show_bug.cgi?id=4508" title="Split screen in word processor
would be a nice addition">original dup. issue 4508</a> (and the Status is
"NEW"!?). 

Not only does it not have a target milestone, it has not been assigned to any
developer ("requirements" = nobody)! It seems some of the "workarounds"
suggested here are being offered as justifications for not giving this issue
any attention. 

I am puzzled why the work area in Calc was made to be splittable (at least
horizontally) and in Writer it is being seemingly dismissed as trivial or
uninteresting. 

Not introducing this feature may (to some) not seem like a sufficient reason
for switching to an alternative word-processing application, but it is
certainly ANOTHER REASON TO SWITCH... and minimizing those reasons are in the
best interest of the "community". 

So, either work on this issue or be honest enough to close it as "WONTFIX"!
Users shouldn't be given the false impression that this issue matters to the
OpenOffice development team!
