--- Comment #3 from [email protected] ---
I've been wondering why this bug hasn't been fixed yet (it seems like it would
be very easy to fix!) and see that it's categorized as "Trivial"... this is not
correct I think, it should be a "Medium/Normal".

I checked the Bug Triage flowchart linked to above and one of the criteria is
"Does it make it harder (or more severely, prevent) a user from doing high
quality work"... yes it does! Whenever I open a document in LibreOffice I have
to manually inspect all the text to see if the text has been accurately
rendered.

Accurate rendering of characters seems like it should be the most fundamental
property of a document tool, but this ticket implies that mis-rendering one
character for another is not a big deal. But it can be!! For example, it's not
uncommon to have nested lists (bullets at one level, diamonds or flowers at
another), and when OpenOffice fails to distinguish between them it can (in
extreme cases) hide the conceptual organization of the material we are
presenting.

And re: my first point; isn't this an easy (trivial??) bug to fix? 

If it is, can the Document Foundation *please* fix this bug so we no longer
have to visually compare documents to make sure our new document versions are
faithful to the originals!?  

Thank you very much, we do appreciate the good work you do.
