[Libreoffice-bugs] [Bug 88666] Auto-Capitalization of paragraphs and new lines i/o sentences

--- Comment #5 from Mike Kaganski  ---
OP provided examples of *correct* cases when the previous line does not end a
sentence, and the next one is expected to start with a capital. Heiko (comment
3) provided an opposite example, mentioning a *different* locale.

The question is: if it is reasonable to make this function locale-specific.
Because if it is really such, then extension-based approach is wrong, because
LibreOffice is simply wrong, not honoring locale-specific rules that we could
add into it, like we add many others (cf. French rules for punctuation, or
locale-specific figure quotes).

Or - if it's not that locale-specific, then what are the reasons for the
current behavior, and what is the ratio of users expecting one vs. the other.
An option (autocorrect option->options) could be a good thing, or we may need
to consider to change to the opposite behavior.

--- Comment #3 from Heiko Tietze  ---
The majority of users likely do not write poems every day, and the first
sentence after salutation is also not necessarily capitalized (your example
would be wrong in German). So I'd say the feature is better realized with an
extension. But if a developer would implement another option like "Always
capitalize after return" which is off by default it won't hurt the average
users. And for sake of consistency with Impress it makes sense to introduce
this option. In Impress it's known as "Capitalize first letter of every
sentence".

Was looking for a workaround with bullet lists where indentation is set to zero
and the bullet char is hidden. Maybe I'm wrong.

Thanks Zeki for filing.

Known behaviour since the old days..
You did set component to Writer, but I expect that other modules have the same
behaviour.

I wonder what ideas others have for this request..  UXAdvise

Cheers,
Cor
