If legacy procedures are the main problem, what about a "transition
period"? If I understand it right, the "aliases" are just scripts that run
the right binary, is it possible to have more than one alias? If yes, let's
say that during 4.x life cycle we have "soffice" AND "aoo", both launching
the program, and then on 5.0 we drop "soffice". Does something like that
makes sense or is just more a trouble than a solution?
