When printing a document from the Windows Explorer context menu (right-clicking
a document and selecting "print"), the document is correctly printed and closed,
but in addition, a new (blank) Writer document session is created and left on
the screen.

This did not occur with OOo-3.0 (a new document was not created).

Tested with .odt and .ods documents; same behavior with both filetypes.

The culprit seems to be the Windows installer, which inserts incorrect keys into
the Windows Registry.

Examination of the Windows Registry reveals the following key responsible for
the Print context menu for Writer files:

Computer\HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\opendocument.WriterDocument.1\shell\print\command
containing value
"C:\Program Files\OpenOffice.org 3\program\soffice.exe" -p "%1"

Adding the "-headless" commandline switch results in the former (expected,
proper) behavior: soffice prints the document silently and exits without opening
and leaving a new document.

Repeat fix for the similarly-named Registry keys pertaining to the print
commands of the other OOo programs.
