For a developer interested in working on a certain topic it would be

"The Design Team asks you to add a 8 px wide blurred shadow in grey 
transparency to all borders of the document. If the zoom factor
reduces the space between two sheets to less than 16px, the
overlapping areas of the shadow should be cut off. This should apply
to every area of LibreOffice, where document borders are visible,
namely Writer, Impress, Draw, XML forms [others not yet searched
for]."

I am afraid you are very wrong there. It is not at all easier -- it
is a lot harder -- and a lot less fun (the stuff that motivates
volunteers).

Speaking for myself here - I'd consider it *helpful* to get
direction on those details. For me, it's not telling me how to code,
but what to put into all those magic constant values needed for UI -
I'd otherwise would need to trial-and-error those out, which is
non-fun (for me).

Besides, at least those bike-shed-color issues, are usually
trivially fixable after-the-fact ... ;)

Cheers,
