--- Comment #5 from Uwe Dippel <[email protected]> ---
Okay, for the explanation.
Totally not okay for an evangelist of FOSS. "Teaching the user" is a bad
alternative to "doing things right from the start".
And for mailmerge program, the user doesn't have to understand inner workings
of a software. If user has a single page document and wants to merge for n
recipients, the user expects n single pages, not 2n-1 pages, with n-1 virtual
pages and n real pages. This, sorry, *is* crazy.
And it is inconsistent. I did work with virtual pages in a publication, but
then empty pages versus full pages would not show (starting a new chapter on
the right side). If you always displayed virtual page numbers versus real page
numbers once virtual pages exist, it would be better.
Though it would still not be good for mail merge, because nobody knows why a
mail-merged document should always start on the right side.
