Well - it is possible to imagine a whole load of schemes for fixing existing
documents with broken horizontal rulers in them :-) what is hard to see is wil
will have time to work on that; it's fundamentally an easy hack if someone has
the time to dig out all the code pointers to try to do the repair. This feature
never worked interoperably across platforms eg. in the past; that those
documents continued to work for the original user was ultimately pure chance.

Please create a new bug - use the UX-Advise component - we now use that to
track open UX requests & input and it's mirrored to the mailing list. That is
by far the best way to track and handle the: "should we add some insert->ruler
functionality" back issue. Until there's some input there, I can't see this
"missing menu" bug being fixed (it is as-designed) - hence the request for
another, clean bug, vs. that component to discuss it.

Anyhow - thanks for your concern :-)
