If text is selected (either by mouse or keyboard), interaction with mouse 
cursor is only possible from "half a letter before selection" to "half a letter 
before end of selection" -> the actual selection (as seen by OpenOffice) is 
shifted by half a letter to the left (compared to the selection as seen by the 
user)

To illustrate this:
Slowly select a word with your mouse and as soon as the last letter is 
selected, right click. You will notice that the word has been deselected 
because OpenOffice registered a right click _outside_ of the selection (which 
is in contrast to what the user actually observes). If you right click to the 
left of a selected word (_outside_ of the visible selection), OpenOffice will 
give you a context menu for the selected word!

As far as I remember this issue can be observed in all versions of OpenOffice.
