It would be good to be able to reference data from OLE objects (like
spreadsheets), in OOWriter documents.

For example: a document has a OLE spreadsheet with some calculations in it, and
you need to use the results of those calculations, so you go to 
Insert > Field > Other > From OLE object > select spreadsheet > select cell
and the data is inserted into the document as a field (ie. text is uneditable).

Perhaps a better way would be to allow Writer to read "Names" of cells from OLE
Spreadsheets? ie. edit OLE Spreadsheet, select cell, Insert > Name, then
Insert > Field > Other > From OLE object > select spreadsheet > select name

Would be good to be able to have the same functionality with DDE linked objects 
too.
