In my opinion, both OOo and Excel perform a poor job here.

Of course, in the given example, Excel is slightly better, BUT I would
personally prefer the following method:
 - IF all the data points of ONLY one group of data are displayed
   (i.e. there is only one mean and one SD)
 - then allow user to select the confidence interval he wants
   e.g. CI95% (+/- 2 SD), (or 68% aka +/- 1 SD)
 - and draw the corresponding horizontal lines

[Confidence intervals could be calculated using more robust methods, like
bootstrapping sometime in the future.]

This would look something like:

quite; it would look much more simple, with only 2 horizontal lines and a number
of bars).
