Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 122592
Only writer takes care of security setting "Ctrl-click required to follow hyperlinks"

In Options -> Openoffice.org -> Security -> Options: "Ctrl-click required to follow hyperlinks" is set. I would expect that this setting affects all AOO components not only writer, since the setting is part of the general preferences. Hyperlinks in Calc, Draw and Impress can be activated by a single click even with this option set.
Confirmed on Rev. 1491860 Debian.
Confirmed in OOo 3.3.0 as well. So this is not new behavior. The online help describes this setting generically. It does not restrict it to Writer. So I'm classifying this as a defect, not an request for enhancement.
So it is, very old bug, already in OOo 3.1. I doubt that related LibO Bug contains additional useful info
This behavior was introduced as security feature, AFAIK. Therefore I don't understand, why this bug is still activ.
Not fixed in AOO 4.1.2 RC2
