Proposal 1: Mock-up of a LO UI picker dialog

Considering that currently on the 6.1dev build, the Notebookbar is no longer
experimental and there are several UI options to choose from it would be good
to draw attention of the users to the different UI options they can choose from
in LibreOffice.

There are other Office suites that allow users to pick between mulitple UIs and
they make a better job of drawing user's attention to those UIs: they offer
dialog boxes where the user can preview the different UI options.

Softmaker Office prompts a dialog box the first time a user starts-up the
software to make the user pick the UI of its preference. 

WPS Office, on the other hand, has a button close to the minimize, maximize and
close buttons that allows the user to change the UI.

I propose that LO should prompt a dialog box at the first start-up after
installation of each module with multiple UIs (Writer, Calc and Impress
currently), to allow the user to easily change the UI without having to dig
down into menus just like Softmaker and WPS Office do. Of course, that by doing
this only polished UIs should be available in this dialog box at the beginning.
