You are right. I misinterpreted the "save user specific values" as the setting we had in OOo1.1, but 6.2 in the spec clearly specifies it as you wrote. I agree that this is a step into the wrong direction. We have too many configuration settings and we should remove some of them, but we shouldn't start with the useful ones. This is a useful one. > btw, is there a complete documentation regarding all parameters that can > be configured via config files ?

OOo2.0 will offer a migration of user data from OOo1.1 to OOo2.0. Here "risky" or obsolete parts are omitted.
