"This might work as an interims solution. ... A general option does not address 
this issue."

i would like to restore editing position in all kinds of documents. actually, 
the fuss is not about adding the option, it's about removing of functional 
option and not providing that envisioned improvement where office suite would 
find out wether person wants to read the document or write at the last position.

why not leave this option until optimal solution is developed ? i don't want to 
go into bad analogies land, but it's like removing a handbrake because 
sometimes 
people can use it while driving and that migh cause undesirable effects.

software should help users in their work. usually i have to work with several 
documents. it is very handy if i have the latest text just after opening the 
document, it helps me to restore my ideas and get on with the work itself. 
sometimes i even don't remember that i have left a sentence in the middle of 
the 
document unfinished - and only when i have it in front of my when opening i 
remember that there is something unfinished.

so, shortcut key is not sufficient for my workflow, where i depend on software 
to remind me where i left my work. and why not ? this way i can concentrate on 
other things immediately instead of trying to remember which was the sentence 
that was unfinished in this 200 page document.

now there is no replacement for this feature. removing functionality and hoping 
that something a lot better will be implemented usually results in no 
improvement or it comes after several years. if there is a need to restructure 
this feature, shouldn't it be done so that it does not disrupt existing 
workflows ? in that case improvements would be warmly greeted.
