Would it also be possible to remove the 'OpenOffice.org' prefix from all
of the entries in the Applications | Office menu? I think this would
definitely make it easier to find Writer and would respect the HIG a
little more[1].

So instead of 'OpenOffice.org Writer' you'd have 'Writer Word Processor'
etc. Just a thought.
