Well, I have a "shim" file somewhere written by a user on the xorg mailing list. Jim McQuillan (likely a good source :-) recommended against such a hack because it is a very sloppy solution. Basically the shim script is used to call on the application and then dumps the cache data for the app since the app doesn't have the capability. If you want to play around with it let me know and I'll send it to you. I did try it to launch firefox and it worked pretty well, but I never tried it with OpenOffice. Even though it isn't a good solution, it might get you by until a good one is found.
