It sounds like you are interested in Grammar Checking. We have an ongoing effort to design and implement an API tailored to the needs of Grammar Checkers and the like. If you want you can join this effort and help us by implementing a prototype of your Grammar Checker using our new API. It uses a very simple access to the text as simple strings, gives corrections back also as simple strings and lets OOo take the burdon to merge the changed strings into its text. Doing everything yourself (retrieving text and merging back the corrected one in all possible situations) will become a very big task and can't be easily explained with a few lines of code.
