I find Fontwork to be really good; compared to WordArt even better in
most ways. I would like being able to rotate by dragging a handle
like in office, and to havea few more gradient options (for many
things) and easier to use color options. (see below)
Also borders (including border art) and shading/background options is
lacking, as is the color options. I like to see several different
color and shade options such as the hexagon and custom pattern in
office as well as the shade intensity selector (or whatever you'd call
that) or even something resembling an html color options chart would
be more helpful than the basic options there are now. What I would
like for shading would be to use the color options with draw such as
gradient, the area options, etc. for backgrounds on the page as well
as the frames (I use frames because it has similar functionality to
the text boxes in publisher). More options for gradient would be
great too, such as to be able to better control the size of the
gradient area (I may want it to fade 1/4 inch from the edge, or most
of the way to the center). What I would like for borders would be to
be able to have simple dashed, dotted etc. lines as well as border
art. Border art as in being able to have a picture repeat itself for
the border, or be able to have a zigzag or other such continuous
pattern around the border.
It would also be convenient to be able to affix a graphic directly to
a frame, so you could get the orientation desired in the frame and
maintain it when the frame is moved. Also to be able to rotate a
frame with a handle like you would with the Fontwork suggestion.
That's my 2 cents on the functionality I would like to see in Ooo that
I currently depend upon publisher for.

You can add new colors hatching and gradients to Draw (Impress)
components. When you edit fills you can add more themes at the last tabs
of that panel. You can can send the edited files from:
/home/<your profilname>/.openoffice.org2/user/config (Linux)
or
documents and settings\<your profilname>\openoffice.org2\user\config
(Windows)
to us.
Also you can send documents with interesting fontwork effects - I can
add it into fontwork gallery - then we might have a chance to get it
into the future releases of OpenOffice.org.
