I ran into an issue with the saving of a doc with an embedded spreadsheet that
turned out to be fixed by a Microsoft Load/Save option.  Seems crazy to me to
default keeping the SS in OO format when chosing to save the text editor portion
as Word 98.  But Andre came up with a case in which it might make sense.  But
his case was so different that those users would want a whole lot of defaults
set differently than what I'd want.  And no one like installing a program and
having to then go through pages of config options to set up what would seem to
be a normal config.  And the config options are certainly not expansively
documented to allow the user to have a high degree of confidence that they know
exactly what the option is going to do.  I had no idea that an option regarding
the handling of "OLE objects" was relevant to a spreadsheet in a swriter doc
being saved as a Word 98 doc.

Thus, I think it would be so much kinder if OO had some generalized profiles
such as "OO working with MS Office users" or "OO working with other OO users"
and so on that would allow an user in one step to configure OO to behave that
makes the most sense for at least that part of their situation.

Also, many people say they liked some particular version of some program.  If OO
had the ability to select profiles that then set numerous options then OO could
then easily be configured to be more like WordPerfect or Word 6 instead of being
something mentioned in passing in some comment somewhere that OO is so flexible
that it can be configured to behave pretty close to some other word processor.
