I talked with Frank Loehmann from the User Experience Team a few times - thank you for your sympathetic ear, Frank! Also I reported most of the issues at IssueZilla. I hope this wiki page will call more attention to these issues and maybe some developers will fix it in the future.

Usability Issues in Detail
Serious Usability Issues
3545 Easier Cropping and rotating of images (application: Writer)
It's very common that people want to edit images that they fit into the page structure. My collegues do that every day (with MS Word). Copying the image into Draw, cropping it, and copying it back to Writer is not a solution!
10865 Moving/Copying - Single-Cell using click-n-drag (application: Calc)
The current behaviour of moving/copying one cell using the mouse is not intuitive. Some people said that patents hold back the implementation of a solution for this issue. Is there no workaround for this patent(s) possible?
85076 Calc won't print/preview documents containing only cell borders (application: Calc)
Very bad impact of a modification of the Calc print preview long time ago.
88714 Find & Replace: keep the "More Options" dialog open when item is selected (application: Calc)
- 88718 Show quantity of selected cells in the "Name Box" of the Formula Bar (application: Calc)
- 93938 Calc loses selected range in a sheet when going to another sheet (application: Calc)
- 94285 Writer crashes when applying template page break styles to document (application: Writer)
- 94809 Copying column to another with different width doesn't reposition pictures correctly (application: Calc)
- 97151 Space between paragraphs filled with paragraph background color (application: Writer)
- 99536 Scaling factor slider lacks displaying factor number (application: Calc)
Non-serious Usability Issues
- 15530 Default filename for PDF export (application: all applications)
- 18771 MSInteroperability-18: watermarks (application: Writer)
- 20073 Q-PCD Enhance usability of the OpenOffice.org Template Manager (application: Writer)
- 22405 An easy way to create watermarks with text (application: Writer)
- 64484 Option to remove all hard formatting controls from the UI (application: all applications)
- 80664 Implement Language Control for Draw/Impress Status Bar (application: Draw, Impress)
- 80665 Implement Language Control for Calc Status Bar (application: Calc)
- 88716 Page Up and Page Down doesn't scroll a full page the first time (application: Writer)
- 91001 Side-by-side view with synchronous scrolling (application: Writer)
- 92154 show accept/reject comments as notes (application: Writer)
- 95647 Allow to start presentation in fullscreen and window modes from ActiveX control (application: Impress)
- 97364 Page numbering should not be touched from paragraph style in (application: Writer)
- 99955 [german] Update warning without scrollbar (application: all applications)
Serious Non-Usability Issues
- 32141 manual page break with style change in masterdocument ignored (application: Writer)
- 73060 Multple Data Sources in one Database File (application: Base)
Non-serious Non-Usability Issues
- 10459 Template Association (apply templates to existing documents) (application: Writer)
- 12989 Allow Page Templates to be linked (application: Writer)
- 52783 change templates for a document (application: Writer)
- 65055 Keep small bullets as default in old documents (like sxw) (application: Writer)
- 90173 Icons of the new Startcenter should be grayed out when loading a document (application: all applications)
- 97150 Bookmarks not visible if Windows task bar is higher than standard and with second monitor (application: Writer)
- 99963 Wrap with text in line missing (application: Writer)
