Word Count
"In Writer, you can open up the word count window and watch it update as you type."
That's a big improvement? In all the documents I created in Open Office, I had a header in which was inserted a field called "Word Count", which showed me the total word count of the document, and updated every time I click 'save'.
Now, you want me to have a separate open window for word count? I can insert the statistics/word count field in my header in LibreOffice, but in my document it only displays the word "Statistics", and doesn't actually show the word count unless I print-preview the document.
This is not a "big improvement".
