Smart Tags
Phone Dialing directly from writer (is it already implemented?)
I was wondering if there is any smart tag already written that recognizes phone numbers and allows the user to select the app or device to dial the phonenumber (i.e. use skype, modem....) so far couldn't find anything.

- a tool or tooling to create oxt packages containing Python macros + other oxt relevant files (description.xml, manifest, xcu, dialogs resources ...)
- enhanced codemaker tool to generate Python skeletons simlair to Java/C++
