--- Comment #9 from Justin L <[email protected]> ---
proposed change to implement 2-line widow/orphans by default at
https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/19794
-only affects new documents.
-widow/orphan setting is saved in the .odt styles setting.

Existing documents can easily be affected by this change, so care is needed. 
Up to now, ODT files do not contain ANY widow/orphan style information IF the
defaults were not modified.  So the true "default setting" still needs to be
disabled widow/orphans in order to properly render old documents. 
(sw/source/core/bastyp/init.cxx seems to be where the default is defined.)

Ensuring that widow/orphan settings are always included in the document's saved
.odt styles ensures backward compatibility.

Widow/Orphans are default in MS Word since at least 2003.  The number of lines
is hard-coded to 2/not-user-adjustable in that version.  So definitely 2 is the
best number to choose.
