I'd love this too; and now the file formats have settled down, it ought to 
be possible. For the moment, I simply copy over the whole user subdirectory 
to the new version, which seems to work. But it's not ideal. 

In the 1.x versions, I used to have one directory for templates, macros, 
and dictionaries called "OOo common", and pointed each successive version 
there in the paths dialogue. I don't know that was any less trouble.
