Here is one high on my list:
http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=79720
[Protect Document but allow input field entry - MS Word to OOo]
they duped it to:
http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=33737
[Allow for in-place editing of input field (turn off pop-up)]
but I highly recommend reading 79720 before wandering off to 33737 as
79720 is not a duplicate of 33737 but they are closely related. Also
note the 'go-oo' comments...
