Consistency across components is important. In 7.6, we have as defaults: - .uno:InsertTimeField in Writer, which now inserts a variable time field, and - .uno:InsertCurrentTime in Calc, which inserts a fixed time.

Sorry Mike, can you clarify what you think needs to be done to resolve the issue? Would be good to have a clear plan agreed on with Heiko. I'm still confused about what is the best course of action. My main concern is that a macro using uno.InsertTimeField does something different if executed with 7.5 vs 7.6. I assume this breaks many users' programs. Please see the attached macro in next comment.
