I'm sorry, as I first thought that this RFE is a good idea and even requested an
issue for it. But meanwhile I detected that OOo's treatment of the user data
makes it useless to allow for changing the author name in the document
properties dialog.

OOo automatically applies the user settings each time a document is saved. So
whatever name you had entered in the dialog, it will be overwritten. 

The right approach would be to allow OOo to have "persona", the ability to
switch identities. You might know this from your email client. So we allow to
define several personae in "Tools-Options" and in "File-Properties" you can
choose one. Of course there also should be a "default persona" that is applied
automatically.
