Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 125990
Processes are started with user interaction when looking for a Java runtime environment

When looking for a Java runtime environment within the Preferences / OpenOffice / Java dialog a process per installed JRE seems to be started with user interaction. This causes icons displayed for a short time within OS X dock. Steps to reproduce: (1) Open Preferences / OpenOffice / Java dialog (2) Select "Use a Java runtime environment" Desired behaviour: Processes should be started without user interaction. This is possible with OS X. Without user interaction (headless) no icons are flashing within OS X dock. The problem appears on Mac OS X 10.9 with OpenOffice 4.2 revision 1648122 from trunk, but seems to exist in earlier revisions too.
