Personally I consider it really bad that we shipped a (random) snapshot of 
Abiword. (I know it wasn't decidedly the fault of the Xubuntu team, but we 
should've maybe started shouting earlier and louder.) The visual glitches that 
couldn't be sorted (LP: #948128) are quite obvious and in my opinion also 
critical, because they suggest that the software isn't reliable if it looks so 
bad.

I think we should strive to ship a more solid version in 12.10, since 3.0 most 
likely won't be released in time (and anyway, it doesn't mean bugs like above 
are fixed!), I'd suggest going back to the stable 2.8 version. Lionel tested 
that recently and it seems to work without many changes (mostly dropping a lib).
