I'm pretty sure that's his work. For contemporaneous discussion of that
patch, see the following thread:

Do read the second post, too, because I was way too grumpy about Normal view
in the first one. It is a useful feature that belongs in AbiWord as soon as
we can figure out how to make it Just Work.

I'd love to see work resume on this, but I suspect that the refactoring
issues run deeper than it first appears.

Paul,
with help from Google
