--- Comment #6 from Heiko Tietze <[email protected]> ---
We discussed the topic in the design meeting.

The feature is badly implemented and obviously not maintained. The image map
can be applied to any image and is effective. But that's not clearly
transparent - the hyperlink becomes active when hovering with ctrl being
pressed, it is editable - the saved map seems not to be relevant for the image,
and has a very dated look and feel.

The need to use image maps is questionable, yet defined by ODF. But alternative
solutions such as a transparent shape on top don't work with 100% transparency.

As a compromise to removing the whole feature we could just remove the command
from menu/toolbar. Users who need it would have to customize it back. 

Code pointer:

=> *.xml and *.ui
