--- Comment #16 from Timur <gtimur at gmail.com> ---
We have 3 situations: Windows with MSO installed, Windows without MSO
installed, Linux. 
WINDOWS with MSO installed: In my case OLE open with MSO and it shouldn't, so
we shouldn't have thos situation at all.
WINDOWS without MSO installed: Behaves like Linux.
LINUX: on fileopen Doc1 right-click doesn't have menus "Save Copy as .." and
"Edit". But double-click works fine. And then in Doc2 we have right-click menus
"Save Copy as .." and "Edit" for Doc3. 
Interesting, after double-click and close, right-click in Doc1 shows menus ( I
guess that confused the reporter for Comment 1 experience). But saving Doc2 and
opening it shows it lost Doc3.
On Linux Comment 7 is not reproducible. 

This is still valid request in LO 6.4+, as follows. I change the title for the
first. Anyone working on this is welcomed to do all three.
> So it looks like:
> 1. Context menu on OLE object should always have "Save Copy as.." action even
>   when that document is otherwise of unknown type.
> 2. Saving (/File/Save Copy As../) of embedded open needs to save also all
>   possible embedded documents inside that level.
> 3. When "Save Copy as" is offered, it should get the filename information from  embedding wrapper, not default file name for saving "Untitled N" and ODF type.


Note: I'd say we had improvement in LO 5.x. Because with 5.0 double-click
didn't work for me.
