This is a list of problems I've noted with KWord from SVN.  Since KWord is in 
flux right now, I figured I would not file bug reports, but if you want me to 
I will.

1.  Choose "Insert Text Frame" from menu (or press F10).  Mouse pointer 
changes to cross.  Scroll document.  Mouse pointer disappears, but you can 
still click mouse button to insert the frame.

2.  Click a text frame border to select it.  Select "Copy" from edit menu. 
Scroll to new position in doc and click mouse.  Select "Paste" from edit 
menu.  Crash.  Are you supposed to be able to copy frame borders?

3.  Insert a Formula.  Type "2+2=4".  Formula frame moves to right and text of 
formula is not visible (white on white).

4.  Popup menus in document structure area don't make sense.  You must select 
a frame (not frameset) to get popup menu, but all the menu items operate on 
framesets.

5.  No way to select or edit 2nd and greater frames of a text frameset from 
document structure area popup menu.  Right-clicking on "page 4" and choosing 
"Edit Text Frameset *always* goes to top of the frameset, i.e. page 1.

6.  Create a text frame.  Click on border of text frame to select it.   Click 
Border Outline button on toolbar to give frame a visible border.  Change 
border properties such as line type, thickness, etc.  Nothing happens. Toggle 
the Border Outline button.  Now the changed properties show up.  Very 
confusing for user.  Am I simply misunderstanding user interface?  Changing 
border properties only applies to the next border created?

7.  Painting and positioning of formula frame is bizarre.  Start a new doc. 
Type in some text.  Hit return a few times.  Insert a formula.  Type "2+2=4". 
Select formula frame.  Drag bottom edge of frame down.  Frame jumps to left 
or right.  Toggle Border Outline button on toolbar.  Frame jumps to left or 
right and sometimes there are two borders painted on screen.

8.  Not sure if this a bug or a feature.  Select Insert Table or press F5. 
Click OK in table dialog.  Click OK to info window advising to click for 
table location.  You can now type and edit until the mouse is clicked, 
whereupon table is inserted.   Note that mouse cursor is I-beam; not cross. 
What if user forgets he is in "position table mode"?  The code in KWCanvas 
does not set MM_CREATE_TABLE.  Instead, it sets boolean flag m_frameInLine 
and reacts to this flag on the next mouse press, whenever it occurs.  At any 
rate, this is completely different from inserting text frames, which leave 
MM_EDIT mode until user clicks the mouse.  When inserting a Picture, if 
inline option is chosen, has same (mis)behavour similar to table,  i.e., user 
can type and mouse cursor is I-beam.
