So its possible to break fonts by using a line spacing other than single. Sound
implausible to me, but i look forward to seeing the evidence behind that, or
were you saying this specifically about LibreOffice?

I doubt we'll be changing the default font, Liberation Serif, and it does look
cramped at 100% in my view, just like its metrically compatible counterpart -
Times New Roman, so the only solution we have is to change the line spacing. We
also have document specifications that dictate that you use a particular line
spacing as well (e.g. APA and MLA require double spacing).

I am suggesting that we change the line spacing in the default style and when
you do so, it changes the line spacing for all inheriting styles that dont
specifically have a line spacing set. So you cant separate the two from each
other.
