--- Comment #24 from Jonathan Clark <[email protected]> ---
In my opinion, this bug should be closed:

1.) This is NOTABUG. This bug was originally filed for incorrect behavior in
the tb-rl writing mode, but our implementation is correct. Furthermore, no
changes are needed to support the CJ "one-letter alphanumerics or capitalized
abbreviations" use case (comment 6). LibreOffice already handles it (comment
23).

2.) The real bug is that LibreOffice doesn't accurately communicate the purpose
of the tb-rl writing mode, which is for CJ vertical writing. This problem is
mitigated somewhat by the fact that these options are hidden unless the user
manually enables East Asian language support, but we should still consider ways
to improve things. Changing the UI is already tracked by bug 157554.

3.) A new enhancement request should be filed for non-CJK stacked writing, if
still desired. The above discussion may be an interesting reference, but I'm
worried that repurposing this bug would distract or mislead. The new bug should
make it clear that this is a new feature request, that it is strictly additive
to existing behavior, and it should state an accurate (non-CJK) use case.
