Sounds like linguistic confusion abounds here.

If a user is running calc, they do not necessarily see the file-open dialogue 
as general to OpenOffice, but specific to Calc.  Someone with that world view 
would not expect file-open to cause the file selected to be opened in writer.  
The 'principle of least astonishment' should surely apply.

The file-open dialogue should not be involved in any guesswork, it seems to 
me.  If a text file is selected using file-open from within calc, how is that 
ambiguous? The delimiter wizard can be invoked for all such files.  No guessing 
need be invoked.  The delimiter wizard could even have an 'open in writer' 
button to appease those who like the present system.
