Long ago we put in the feature to convert at load time embedded Microsoft Office
formats and convert them to our own so that double-clicking them could allow
them to be edited. (tools->options->load/save->microsoft office). Then later we
defaulted it off because it was slowing down the load of documents with a lot of
objects in them.

How difficult do you think it would be to instead somehow register OOo itself as
the handler for editing embedded Microsoft Office objects (esp. under unix).
That way we could get the best of both worlds. Fast no-conversion load, then the
ability to double-click to edit, which is probably the feature we should have
tried to implement the first time
