Nathan,

I am also looking into this.

My feeling is that it should be in the standard office installation, not
an extension.

Reason: If I attach a license to my document, I want that everybody is
aware of that when opening the doc, not just people who have the extension.

License must be contained in the document container, and OOo might show
a little symbol in the status bar, like for a signed document.

But I didn't look deeper into the details right now...

Malte.
