​Many thanks, Heiko, to all of you for the work you are doing on this
matter. Would it be possible to request the option to customise toolbar
*location*, so that it could be moved from the right to the left side by
those of us who, for one reason or another, are so inclined ?...

​Wonderful work, Christian ; we users are in your debt and that of all the
developers !​

​I am particularly glad to see that the «Find and replace»​ button has
become part of the standard toolbar setup i Writer ; I have always meant to
ask why this most useful feature was not given the priority (I thought) it
deserved - but now, at last, it has !...

​Once again, Christian, you LO developers seem to have done a fantastic job
! Kudos ! I really look forward to using this version, when it's come a bit
longer. As it is, I'm quite impressed (no pun intended) with 4.1.4.2...
