    Here's another "me too." I detest those pop-up animations too--"It looks like
    you're writing a letter. Need help?" Patronizing, condescending--rude. I
    write poetry and often do not capitalize the first letter of each line. Word is
    truly obnoxious in this regard.

    Please don't automate features that compel the user to do what he/she
    doesn't want to do.
