Description: LibreOffice Writer does not count the text inside text boxes. In the possible implementation, it would be good to make it optional as described in tdf#99189. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open LibreOffice writer 2. Add a text box using "Insert > Text Box" 3. Enter some text in the text box Actual Results: Word count in the status bar is all zero (words / characters). Also in "File > Properties > Statistics", everything (except number of pages) is zero. Expected Results: Word count should also consider the text boxes in the document Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: No Additional Info: Version: 24.2.0.0.alpha0+ (X86_64) / LibreOffice Community Build ID: bea05a79c8ed565909e341a24b298d8deab7e042 CPU threads: 12; OS: Linux 5.19; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3 Locale: en-US (en_US.UTF-8); UI: en-US Calc: threaded
