Most of the shape categories shown in the attachments about Dia and Calligra
Flow could be provided as extensions for the Gallery.

All ActionButtons are missing. In MS Office they provide a UI to determine
actions, similar to form elements, which makes them useful for presentations.
But that is not a 'difficultyBeginner' task. But at least the buttons
themselves could be added because of the images on them. It could be discussed
whether to use the MS binary kind or the OOXML kind. In case the 'action'
feature is intended, it can not be solved by a Gallery theme, but needs to be a
floater in the Drawing toolbar or location in the sidebar.

A list of the MS Office binary shapes with illustrations is in
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/openspecs/office_file_formats/ms-odraw/9c0c5c01-9e90-41aa-ba15-477dacb4cc8e
Scroll down to the end for the ActionButtons.

>From OOXML are missing: funnel, gear6, gear9, nonIsoscelesTrapezoid,
swooshArrow and uturnArrow. They should go to the 'Shapes' or 'Arrows' theme in
the Gallery, which contains already other OOXML-shapes. (gear9 and uturnArrow
are already there.)

I'm not sure about the MS Office binary shape msoUturnArrow (id 101). It is
missing but we have the ooxml-version in the Gallery. On the other hand the
ooxml-version is not suitable for export to MS Office binary formats. 

Interesting would be a 'spiral'. Such is available in SoftMaker and in
Inkscape. That could go to the Gallery.

There is the wish for a mirrored trapezoid in bug 116672.

ToDo for the floater in the drawing toolbar: 
Missing are 'arc' and 'chord'. The currently included ones are in fact no
custom shapes but belong to the 'legacy' shapes. For 'arc' it is msosptArc (id
19).
