black dot instead of black line when reordering slides

When I drag a slide in the sidebar to change their order a square dot appears. 
Would in it be better having a thick horizontal line below the slide under which you want to put the slide being displaced?

EDIT: Wouldn't it be better having a thick horizontal line below the slide under which you want to put the slide being displaced

Please explain why you think it would be better? 
I don't have problem with current UI, it's clear.
Comment 3 mirko.pieropan 2019-12-15 19:58:58 UTC
It's clear and works, but is not very pleasant to see in my opinion. Adding examples from similar software.

Look and feel in LibreOffice

That's how it looks for me, quite beautiful compared to the other. Your dot looks like a bug to me.

Confirming on macOS Vanilla.

So, this is actually a regression. LO 3.3 shows a black line where you are currently dragging the slide, plus a dotted outline. Not super fancy, but a lot better than the current dot that is smaller than a normal mouse pointer :)

Present all the way back to 3.4, so this can't be bisected
