I mean that manual positioning for form elements is useful in Writer, but unnecessary in Calc. In Calc, positioning should be automatic. Or at least this should be an option. Manual positioning in Writer documents make sense as each page is a canvas - meant to resemble a physical piece of paper. Form elements will most certainly need their own unique position as all form elements cannot all be centered, one on top of the other, on the page. In Calc, however, the design methodology is different. I'm not sure if the concept of a cell has any equivalent in real life (bunch of small Post-it notes maybe?), but here each cell becomes a canvas. Here it makes more sense to automatically center each form element within each cell. Who puts form elements on top of multiple cells, or multiple form elements inside one cell anyway?
