Description lamarcbr 2003-07-03 12:27:50 UTC 
The Mozilla browser has several user interface elements that OpenOffice.org 
could leverage. For example:

At the left edge of the of menu and toolbars, there's a little button that 
allows the user to collapse (hide) a particular toolbar or the menu bar.

The Sidebar is very similar to the Task Panes such as the Navigator and the 
Stylist. These should docked by default. The Sidebar in Mozilla also allows the 
user to stack, collapse and expand these panes. This is a concept that could be 
used by OO.

Mozilla has some little buttons (icons) in the status bar. One of them allows 
the user to start Composer and the Mail client. This makes good use to the 
status bar. OO could use this concept for the Options, New Document, Template, 
and Macro functions (among others, I can't of better ones right now).

Thank for creating an excellent product.

To grep the issues easier via "requirements" I put the issues currently lying on
my owner to the owner "requirements".

1) Add possibility to hide menu bar and display it when pressing Alt.
2) IMHO no default docking.
3) Status bar shouldn't be cluttered.
