<pre>While fixing aspect (2) of <a class="bz_bug_link
bz_status_VERIFIED bz_closed"
title="VERIFIED FIXED - Writer: Preview of linked doc is not updated when edited"
href="show_bug.cgi?id=130945">tdf#130945</a> I stumbled upon the following error:
A prepared OLE might be opened by two running instances of LO at the same time.
In this scenario (besides also (2) creates irritation here) it is
non-deterministic who's change gets applied. This depends on which instance of
LO deactivates the shared OLE first (or with (2) fixed, who saves the hosting
document first).
A fix of this would need to evtl. check when inserting the shared linked OLE if
it is opened already by another instance, or - alternatively - check on
save/deactivate and evtl. ask user if he wants to discard or copy the OLE -
something like that, details need discussion.
Also refer to aspect (3)
