Upon further examination it appears that handling of absolute/relative reference
updating is completely broken in OpenOffice 3.x. I am pretty certain this worked
at least partially in 2.x, but don't have an install to hand to test. I will try
and confirm this is a regression and post an updated test case.

For confirmation on the intended function, here is a quote from the manual:

Absolute references are used when a calculation refers to one specific cell in
your sheet. If a formula that refers to exactly this cell is copied relatively
to a cell below the original cell, the reference will also be moved down if you
did not define the cell coordinates as absolute.

There is a shortcut guide to cell references at:

  ... would be happy to create a  ...
Please do so!

I can't see any relation between your HELP quote and your report, HELP is
concerning COPY/PASTE formulas with references, your report concerning MOVING
(cut/past) the referenced cells.

OK, so experimentation reveals that this behavior is consistent within sheets,
versions and matches Excel. Absolute and relative formulas are indeed treated
identically when their destination cells are moved - references are always
updated if it is a single cell move, and are updated for horizontal/vertical
moves for cell ranges. They are not updated for non horizontal/vertical moves
for cell ranges.

I will look around and see if there are proposed solutions for allowing more
fine grained control over this behavior, such that you can move cells without
updating formulas.

One option that occurred to me is that perhaps references in cells within
locked/protected sheets could be left alone rather than updated when their
targets are cut and pasted. This would appear to fix the user experience issue
to a wide range of template worksheet use cases.
