We listen :-) Well, the testing can be done even with Dev builds. I
installed the daily build from
http://dev-builds.libreoffice.org/daily/Linux-x86_64_11-Release-Configuration/master/current/
and did the following steps:
1. started the official libreoffice3.6, modified some settings, and stopped it
2. removed ~/.config/libreoffice/3/MIGRATED
3. removed ~/.config/lodev/4
4. started lodev4.0
Result: Most of the setting changes were migrated.
That is clear.
Can one of you please tell me if there is a different result when one
does what you did and between manually copying the user profile to the
new versions' user directory?
The only problem I found was Tools/Options/LibreOffice/Appearance
because there are named schemes (LibreOffice vs. LoDev). Well, this can
be tested as well if you create your own scheme.
IMHO, the question is if we really need to spend resources on special
dialog or special support. Note that we do not migrate configuration
between minor releases. So this testing is needed only once every few
years.
On the other hand, also between minor release there may be differences
that interfere with the user-profile.
Therefore testing it with a new and with the existing user profile make
sense, IMO.
Cheers,
