The real point is not if it fits the definition of defect. It is, instead, the
urgency that is requests. See? Not being a defect doesn't exclude the
possibility of being urgent (in general yes, but it shouldn't always, according
to any reason). That's why:

Read Writer Guide, chapter five, third edition. Available at:

http://documentation.openoffice.org/manuals/oooauthors2/

1- On page 145, it says without any exceptions that OOo can export documents to
PDF. It's widely advertised as a PDF-capable program... you can clearly see that
the publicity doesn't say anything about incapable of dealing with this or that
font format. And OTF-PS is not a niche font format by any means, so even common
sense  would not apply (to justify the lack of remarks). So there should be at
least remarks.

2- Also, at least on Windows, OTF-PS fonts are displayed just fine but PDF
export is done without any warning... the problem is not the lack of support,
but the fact that if one doesn't check the PDF (in a hurry to e-mail it), you
can't know that the document will be completely different from the original 
(Times).

3- This is also, in my opinion, very bad for the program image as a whole... on
point 2, people will wonder if Writer may misbehave on other things as well,
without warning them.

So, there are indeed "features" that are more urgent than many "defects" out 
there.
