I will request release blocker status, so that the fix gets included in the
next release.
This isn't really a release blocker, but the fix is very trivial and it has no
risk at all. On the other hand, Programmability should always be a top priority
in Apache OpenOffice, because it is a way to develop custom solutions on top of
Apache OpenOffice binary release without the need to rebuild from source code
nor hack it around. And as the reporter says, this bug is rather annoying.

Some background information, as I was told that I (1) was "quoted" on
another bugzilla (2). Looking at all the German names, it looks like
most of them come from the WollMux people from München's LiMux project
(3). I couldn't find information if they are still using
OpenOffice.org, or if they have migrated to LO, or are planning to do
so with Apache OpenOffice, Google search shows most results for OOo
and WollMux.
Any way it does not seem a good idea to make API users wait until the
next release to have this bug fixed. You can see this bug annoyance by
running the SDK examples
openoffice.org/basis3.4/sdk/examples/DevelopersGuide/FirstSteps
openoffice.org/basis3.4/sdk/examples/DevelopersGuide/OfficeBean
and even using the NB plug-in: in a new AOO Component Project,
bootstrapping to fill the tree with types opens the Start Center too.

I commit it on trunk:
http://svn.apache.org/viewvc?view=revision&revision=1371665
The bug is far from making AOO "absolutely unusuable".

even trivial fixes are tricky sometimes. Do we have the fix in place and can we do some code review?
