The current Tools - Options window uses an unattractive and clutered layout. It
would be a huge usability enhancement if the window was to use a tabbed page
layout (similar to other office applications).  It would make navigating the
options easier, especially for those that are coming from applications from the
redmond giant.

To help reduce the number of options visible and enhance the layout further,
options that are applicable to other OOo components, such as impress should not
be visible from the writer application. The reduction in the number of options
to only those that are relevent to the current application should increase the
usability of the application.
