A very informative comment, thank you.
Being 1) a developer (though not of writer) and 2) a sort of spokesman for the
users of the company I work for, this is a difficult one.

The users our company that use Visio to make all sort of graphics in writer
documents simply say that a) it worked with version 3 and no longer works with
version 4 and b) the insert-object-OLE object-create new/other object-use file
needs more actions than insert-object-OLE object-use file and so is
inconvenient.
a) made me to add regression
b) is correct from a user's POV, especially as the difference between the 2,
which took you a lot of lines to explain ;-), is totally invisible to users.

I tend to call this bug report resolved for developers, but new for help text
writers (is that a different mailing list?).
