This is a meta issue to track the most annoying bugs in LibreOffice 4.4.x releases. It helps developers to focus on bugs that are most critical for users. Also it helps users to be aware of potential problems. If anyone wants to raise a bug as “most annoying” for the release, please add the ID of that bug to the field “Depends on”, leave a short description of the bug, and explain in few words why that bug should get privileged, for example: Add bug #XXXXX: Writer ignores page size setting. The default size is Letter. The document format is often broken when printing on A4 paper in Europe. For details, criteria and further instructions, please see http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Most_Annoying_Bugs

@jmg74 this list is reserved to bugs that are specific to the 4.4.x branch the bug you added is already present in older branches so it does not belong to this list and I'll remove it. if you think that it qualifies as a MAB you should file it to the proper list which is currently mab4.2 (see the link under See Also)
