Well I personally dislike sweeping things under the carpet. It makes tracking of bugs very hard, and simply solving an issue at the wrong level. So it's rather a 'last resort'. Which isn't the last option by definition, but also matter of cost/benefit and how much harm it can do I encountered the same problem in slightly different consternation at bug 146491. Where it seems - no understanding of the code - that hidden fields are written to DOCX. Which is likely wrong (polluting the file). Which makes showing hidden fields in navigator more of a feature Referenced Bugs: https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=103030 [Bug 103030] [META] Navigator sidebar deck and floating window -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
