The described scenario "One setting must meet all users needs because we share
machines" is not a problem of this time. Sharing a machine does not mean sharing
the same user settings for the office. Simple batch files can shift
user-specific settings in a few seconds without a reboot or log-off, only an
office restart is needed.
English is a good example of "getting along well without using the Shift key at
all". The other side is that this makes users "lazy". In German, where all nouns
start capitalized, users are USED to use the shift key several times in an
average sentence.
However, it is understandable that english typing shift-key-avoiders expect the
software to do this for them.
And this leads to the dilemma of "abbbreviation at the end of sentences". Not
setting or options in AutoCorrect can ever solve this.
Only a grammar check can spot "the end of a sentence".
For OOo 3.0, grammar check API is already available and grammar check UI support
is on the way, too. Now it takes deployers of grammar checking tools to get them
ready als extension for OOo.
I therefore propose to close this issue because
- AutoCorrect can not solve this problem.
- It will be solved "along" with the introduction of grammar checkers.
Set to "Invalid".
