Well, I think it could be merged with https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=104930 but that's a better title. Anyways, to fully support the different baselines, users should be able to manually set the different baselines at character, line or paragraph level (although a reasonable automatic guess could be implemented first). Having these baseline options not only means UI but also modifications in the file format, providing extensions to ODF, etc. that's quite a big job...

We can submitting a proposal to OASIS Technical Committees, then focus on their Issue Tracker if they are decided to do that.
