      The new Qt5 plugin sounds amazing! Maybe it looks then fine on a 4k screen and a native file dialog would be great too in KDE!

        Are there also any new "serious work" features, in addition to the new eye candy?

          Multi threaded calc sounds pretty serious.

            Spellcheck improvements might be good for Michael. ^ _ ^

              This is a really exciting release, though not as big of a deal as many flag it to be, imo. It won't revolutionize office work. It's a big update for sure and I will benefit from it.

                They are just fine. If they aren't, it means that your distribution has built LibreOffice without kdelibs4-support, which still exists and properly integrates with Plasma-5.

                    Libreoffice lacks a (modern) email client. I'm totally fed up with Thunderbird, but I'm afraid it's still the lesser evil out there.
