          Priority: medium
            Bug ID: 65811
          Assignee: [email protected]
           Summary: Implement Priority System for Status Bar Elements, so
                    We Can Better Resize It
          Severity: enhancement
    Classification: Unclassified
                OS: All
          Reporter: [email protected]
          Hardware: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
           Version: 4.2.0.0.alpha0+ Master
         Component: UI
           Product: LibreOffice

Currently, when resizing the window too small (e.g. when editing two documents
side by side), one loses the arguably most important feature of the status bar,
zoom – because it is located at the far right and so just pushed out.

It would be better, if we instead lost things that people tend to use less
often. Therefore, we need a priority system that e.g. assigns every status bar
element a number, throwing the elements with the highest number out first.

Short example for Writer, informed by my own usage only:
#1  Zoom percentage
#2  Zoom controls
#3  Page number/count
#4  Language selector
#5  Single page/multiple pages/book view
#6  Page style
#7  Insert/Overwrite mode indicator
#8  Word count
#9  Signature indicator
#10 Selection status indicator
#11 Saving status indicator

When that is done, a further idea would be to implement shorter versions of the
most space-grabbing status bar elements, like the word count or the Overwite
mode indicator.
