I just learned something new, and I'm afraid that I have some bad news.

What I didn't know (and nobody from the team knew): in OOo we can only support
*either* Mongolian *or* Mongolian(cyrillic). The reason is that we don't have
real script support and the script type is derived from the "language attribute"
(should be "locale attribute") of the text.

Implementing script type support in OOo is a lot of work to do and will most
probably not happen before the OpenJava guys have defined how *they* will fix
this problem (they also have it). We want to stay "compatible" with them as our
UNO struct we use for transporting the relevant information is directly mapped
to the Java type in our Java-UNO binding.

There is a possible workaround. It will enable users to use either script type
in their documents, but not both Mongolian and Mongolian(cyrillic) in the same
document.

Before I go into the details - what do you think?

The only alternative I see is throwing our Mongolian(cyrillic) but this will
damage older documents written with that language and script type.
