Previously, when authoring documents containing multiple languages,
certain characters (e.g. smart quotes) could use the wrong/undesired
font. For example, if a Chinese word is quoted inside English text, the
right quotation mark would use the Chinese font rather than the
intuitively-expected English font. Users had no way to control this
behavior.
With this change, Writer will now set an appropriate style:script-type
hint when the user manually specifies a language for a selection in the
user interface. This can be used to quickly correct instances of the
above problem.
