OpenOffice.org Writer lacks the transparency/eyedrop option from Microsoft Word. 

Openoffice.org Draw/Impress recently got this feature, so Writer should have
this feature too; that means you don't have to open Draw and do reptetive copy
and paste actions between Writer and Draw there.

Eyedrop tool could be added to Tools->Eyedrop and/or inside the Picture toolbar.

Reasoning: to replace a color, eg.,  a black background in a picture used in the
document, saves the data in the document, not the original picture

believe it or not, but it is under impress
