--- Comment #16 from Stéphane Guillou (stragu) 
<stephane.guil...@libreoffice.org> ---
I agree with Eyal, I don't think Ady was correct in that "Default" reverts to
the Style alignment setting. At least not in my tests. We might want to
"obsolete" some comments here.

What I suggest as solutions to some of the problems described here:

1. Format Cells dialog, Alignment tab:
- Rename horizontal "Default" to "Automatic", which describes the function
better: depending on the cell's contents, an alignment setting is automatically
picked. It clears the confusion. It is what we use for colours.
- Remove vertical "Default" if it doesn't do anything different to "Bottom",
and use "Bottom" as the default selection.
- Rename sections "Text Alignment" and "Text Orientation" to "Alignment" and
"Orientation" respectively because they also affect numbers.
- Rename "Wrap text automatically" to "Wrap automatically" for the same reason.
(Alternatively, for the last two points, "text" can be replaced by "contents".)

2. Format menu:
- "Format > Align Text" renamed to "Alignment" because it doesn't just affect
text. It can even align shapes!
- "Format > Align Text > Center" (for vertical section) is renamed to "Middle"
so it matches the formatting dialog term
- Addition of "Format > Alignment > Automatic" option for the horizontal
alignment section (the old "Default"). The other, more obscure alignment
options can live exclusively in the Format Cells dialog, as currently.

3. Documentation
- Use the new strings
- Add missing information about RTL

Would that cover it?
