@Mike: :D I didn't know that - I didn't even know you *could* launch Word from
the command line and I doubt the devs thought any user ever would.
Before LO, it must have been the only WP in the world to have that
defectXXXXXXcharacteristic and I'm not sure LOWriter should imitate MSWord just
to imitate MSWord.

I had a quick look at making a patch but couldn't see immediately where to act.
It seems like it would be a fairly simple change for someone who already knows
the code base, but if it's difficult for some lowriter-internal reason, don't
bother.
