Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: openoffice.org

OpenOffice.org 3.0.1, Ubuntu 9.04

By default, OpenOffice.org Writer's Standard toolbar contains two
toolbar buttons with near-identical icons: "Spelling & Grammar" and
"AutoSpellcheck".

During Canonical user testing, one test subject said: "The only thing
that I'm not quite sure about is that there's two like 'ABC' check
[buttons], I'm not sure [which is which]."

An easy way to resolve this confusion would be to remove the
AutoSpellcheck button from the set of buttons shown by default, since
toggling automatic specllecking on and off almost certainly is not one
of the most commonly desired commands in OO.o Writer. (This would have
an incidental aesthetic benefit, in that removing a button from the
Standard toolbar would make the two default toolbars exactly the same
length.)
