You're moving into slippery slope when using this argument. LibreOffice never feels totally native (workflow or UI wise). It's always been a compromise because of technically limitations or different UI guidelines between desktop environments You're opening a box of Pandora when going all in on: "blend into the OS/DE". You can't dismiss a feature requests with: we are a cross-platform application and we have to opt for compromise For example: Blending into would - entail setting tabbed bar default on Windows and improving - it matching Windows look and feel. There is also not a wheel of inventions here. It was OK until started to use the platform/UI toolkit. So the 'proper' dialog is actually available. It's not gone, it's not used anymore in favor of UI Toolkit. Which doesn't match LibreOffice standards regarding functionality. Sure it's not nice having to workaround the platform/UI toolkit. And ideally it shouldn't be needed. It's frustrating, maybe even infuriating. However making user experience of your app depended outside your control and 'blaming' others for the lack of functionality doesn't seem mature. And well GTK developers might have totally different priority's. It might be a corner case in perspective of a desktop environment, whereas it's more essential for some apps (like LibreOffice) -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
