Tim,
As with Libre has anyone looked at dialogs for OpenOffice? Apache openoffice 3.4 was just released and it works great:
http://www.openoffice.org/download/
It is much.., much... more responsive that LO and avoids a couple of nasty formatting bugs that affect line/character spacing in LO. Apache OO does have a nice GTK file browser by default (like the tde browser), but it would be nice to have an integrated browser for AOO as well.
For Pete's Sake! Haven't you been keeping up with the news? (old news). Most developers ditched OO.org because their cough cough great parent company was causing more problems than they resolved. LibreOffice forked with a open source and group run mentality. No more corporate crap. Steadily they've been whittling away at the cruft of years and years of badly written code and to much damned Java. Then Oracle ditches OO.org to apache who for some inexplicable reason takes the project on. Down with Open Office! *
Using OO.org would be like sending patches to the xfree86 project.
