Sorry for interfering with your mail.
I would like to put a question collateral to the matter of your discussion. I am not familiar with OOo "mechanics", how "technical" matters work. Would someone of you be so kind to tell me where can I find the meaning of the different abbreviations I see many times: for instance, PFX (prefix?), SFX (suffix?), REP, .aff file, etc., etc.
Thank you.

anything about the PFX ou REP flag. Should we use them
in our aff file?


It's really up to you. I would only guess that you probably should focus on suffixes first because: a) to the best of my knowledge, Portuguese has a relatively litimed set of prefixes, so you can simply add prefixed words as separate entries; b) Portuguese writing is more or less phonetic and there are no specific mistakes. I'd only guess the following vairant: in Brasilian, as I know, the letter ê is used instead of é as in Iberian Portuguese in quite many cases, so you can add as follows:
REP 1
é ê
to “brazilianize” spelling.

Also, the .aff file has no comment! Can we add comment
to that?


Yes, use a # to delimit a comment:
# E um comento

I can only advise to put comments into separate lines; in my experience, comments in line with suffix entries lead to bugs and crashes.

Isn't there a better documentation somewhere?


I haven't seen anything better and even anything else. Try to study affix files for other languages.

Atenciosamente,
