Just to clarify. You installed OpenOffice to your *own* /opt directory
or the system one from the root level?

When I install AOO on my system as root to the system opt directory
/opt/openoffice4, and then run it as my own userid on my system, my
.openoffice/4 directory is created in my own user space, so this IS my
own home directory. So this ends up in $HOME/.openoffice/4/

I think the behavior you're seeing would be expected if you installed
openoffice in your own /opt directory vs the system one and installed as
root etc.
