This may be a bug in OOo but it has system wide effects. An everyday Ubuntu user with little Linux/Unix experience will not know how to close the system down cleanly through the command line. I only found out the truth of it by searching for this bug. Again not the thing we would expect the everyday Ubuntu user to do.
If we virtually ignore this, we risk the reputation of Ubuntu as a whole. It MUST be given a HIGH priority. Its importance cannot be written off as just and OOo bug. As John Donne wrote "No man is an island". Likewise, we cannot consider OOo isolated from the rest of Ubuntu. His verse ends "And therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls; It tolls for thee." We cannot let a single program, OOo in this case, bring down the whole of Ubuntu.
