Not really a bug, but yeah... we need to get rid of the tabs when saving templates or users will think there is a bug.

This is a very serious bug for 4.0.0.3. There is no way to set a default document for Writer when opening the program. Each time I must format the page. File / Save As Template does not allow anyway to save the customized page for future use.

When you select a template, you have an action in the upper bar to set it as default template. In "Save As Template", you need to go through the other tabs ATM as there is no Writer / Calc and Draw template by default (and then nothing shown in these tabs).

I'm marking this bug as fixed, as the tabs have been removed in Save As Template for 4.0.1
