Thanks for the explanation, but I hope you're joking here. There's no good reason why this db is prefilled. It comes across like beta software where someone forget to remove the test data.
No, I'm not joking, as I know users who find this data helpfull and have even requested an update of the data.

I have never come across any database application that prefills content, unless perhaps it's generic content like country codes or whatever in a relational db (not relevant here, because a flat db).

Moreover, I don't recall ever meeting anyone who actually uses the existing bibliographic support. So I'm not sure what users are requesting it be updated. I'm sure you won't hear such a request on our mailing lists.

But if it is really disturbing, we have some protocols for changing a feature in OOo .. this usually start by reporting an issue. (So that the change is trackable)

OK.
