Read Only files should be open in R/W mode

In OOo, read only files are open in a Read Only mode, where a lot of actions are not possible. Even though it sounds logical, it's useless and creates many different problems.

Read only files are quite frequent, for instance when you open an attachement from the preview pane in Outlook.

The correct behaviour should be to open the file normally, and to propose a "Save As" action even when the "Save" icon or file menu entry is chosen.


Focus under MS Windows XP

When openning an OOo file from a message in Outlook, it opens often in background. A significant amount of users then believe, that the file is not open.


Strangely, an issue seems to report the opposite

PDF generated by OOo are printed upside down when "Autorotate and center" option is checked" in PDF readers

This is very problematic when printing several pages on one sheet or merging an OOo PDF with other PDFs.

This option is checked by default and is actually necessary most of the time. Happens with Acrobat Reader, Foxit reader, etc.
