ES: the goal is to make a balance between "everything we can make perfect" and help as many people as possible who are missing this feature.

Provocative: Why do we implement this as a core feature while there's already a working extension for this (http://extensions.services.openoffice.org/project/insecable)?
Note: This extension only works for Writer.
-> No need to download something extra for a function which should work from the start.
-> As mentioned: the extension only work in Writer... -
Scope: "French". In which country? France, Switzerland, Belgium, Quebec, others? Which references should we have?
- France, Switzerland, Belgium: http://unicode.org/udhr/n/notes_fra.html
- Canada: http://www.olf.gouv.qc.ca/RESSOURCES/ti/espacements_20030605.pdf. -
Use always a simple non breaking space (HTML:  ) or follow the subtle differentiations of the French typography rules using a so called "thin space" (espace fine) (HTML: &thinsp - which is a BREAKING space!) depending of the case?
Note: MS-Word seems to (always) use the simple non breaking space...
- Yes: the simple non breaking space will be used.-
And then re-work the implementation of "Tools - AutoCorrect Options - Custom Quotes" when French is the current character language?
-
-
Shouldn't we avoid to through a very language specific feature into the general AutoCorrect Options dialog? Create a new localized tab page?
Yes. Both questions above find their answer in the AutoCorrect Options - Localized Options specification.
