Confirmed.

Ubuntu 15.04
LibreOffice 3.3 (inherited from OOo)

Setting to:
New
Trivial - no impact on professional quality work;
Lowest - default

needsDevEval (likely an easy hack)

@Jay - thanks for the awesome instructions :)

aren't those the general move paragraph up/down actions?

Yes you are correct that they move paragraphs up and down, which makes me wonder why its exclusive to the bullet and number toolbar.

Is it that they are only shown on those tool bar?
There are short cuts for the behaviour too, that people may use: Ctrl+Alt+up/down (but my Ubunutu uses them for good reasons)

Yes not in any other toolbar

On XFCE, Cinammon, and Mate, Ctrl+Alt+Up and Ctrl+Alt+Down are used for workspace switching.

Indeed - just related to availability in toolbar(s)
Should be an easy hack. @heiko?

These command labels have been reworked in the past years and should be more clear now.
