*Description*
-------------
Currently, when the user closes his Gnome session and has still
unsaved OpenOffice.org documents, OpenOffice.org is forced to close
without asking if the unsaved documents should be saved. The result is
that the user has to go thru the
restoring process when he starts OpenOffice.org again.

Unfortunately at least some Gnome versions/configurations are not able
to handle the scenario correctly. In case an application request from
Gnome to show UI on shutdown, and the user is not fast enough to react
to the dialog, the Gnome session manager just crashes. I have
reproduced it with GEdit ( Gnome standard text editor ), so it is
definitely a problem of the Gnome shutdown process.

Since a Gnome configuration might have a problem with the solution as
described above, the new behavior is not active per default. To turn
it on the new configuration property
"org.openoffice.Office.Recovery/SessionShutdown/DocumentStoreUIEnabled"
should be set to true.
