As I said before, the point was that requiring users to reinstall extensions is not unreasonable. It is certainly better than what you are recommending, that users must reinstall extensions but then they also lose every other setting and preference they had in their profile as well,
Actually, since a corrupted profile is the largest cause of problems for users of OOo and the cure is a new profile, it would be far safer for a major update like AOO 3.4 to use a completely new profile. This approach is recommended by many of the people giving support for OOo. (I've never done that myself, although I have had to replace a corrupted profile.)
Since talking to you is pointless, I'll let you have the last word when you respond to this post. My points have been made and are clear to any reasonable person.
