1. Not all user directories listed in options
  for configuring. Suggestion is to have a base
  directory

C:\Winnt\Profiles\yourname\Application Data\OpenOffice.org1.9.79\

which you can specify anything, eg you could put instead:

C:\MyOpenOfficeConfig\

if you really wanted to.

Then if this base directory is changed, all the other directories change as 
well (eg database, gallery, autotext, etc), since they would be entered as 
relative
(eg user\autocorr\ )
by default, unless they are specifically entered as absolute then it would 
override the base directory.

At present some directories don't seem to be
configurable for example,

Scripts
store
uno_packages

any others?

which leaves us with as slightly unknown state since,
most of my OO config I've moved to another location
by changing each path one by one in the options,
but some didn't have a place to configure them.
Unless I couldn't find it. I looked at:

Tools->Options->OpenOffice.org->Paths

The full list of paths I seem to have is:

Application Data\OpenOffice.org1.9.79\user\

05/03/05  11:31p        <DIR>          autocorr
05/03/05  11:31p        <DIR>          autotext
05/04/05  01:11a        <DIR>          backup
05/04/05  01:12a        <DIR>          basic
05/03/05  11:31p        <DIR>          config
05/03/05  11:31p        <DIR>          database
05/03/05  11:31p        <DIR>          gallery
05/03/05  11:31p        <DIR>          registry
05/03/05  11:31p        <DIR>          Scripts
05/03/05  11:31p        <DIR>          store
05/03/05  11:31p        <DIR>          temp
05/03/05  11:31p        <DIR>          template
05/03/05  11:31p        <DIR>          uno_packages
05/03/05  11:31p        <DIR>          wordbook

"Most" of these seem configurable. However I think
having a base user directory (or some way users can
get everything out of their profile location on
C:\Profiles\yourloginame\etcetc to elsewhere
if they want to store it in another place such as
on a network drive etc) could be a possiblity.
