I have experienced the same behaviour. User has read-only permission on
directory and read-write permission on a file in that directory. OOo 2.4(.1) was
able to open the file in read-write, and OOo 3 can only open it in read-only
mode. I assume this is because of the lock-file which is introduced in OOo 3,
that can't be written to the directory because the user has no rights to create
a new file in that directory.
Maybe it is a good idea to revert to the old method, used in OOo 2.x, when there
is no permission to write a lock-file? (Although I'm wondering how MS Office
handles this, because if I'm correctly remembering this, Excel for example, also
creates a new file, a copy of the original, in which is worked. And when saved,
the original file gets deleted, and replaced by the working-copy...)
