I already mentioned this bug some time ago on this list, I think:
It helps to at least mention what you're talking about in the subject.
Please choose a more telling subject next time.

It is quite relevant for L10N teams and international users, even more
for users that have spell-checking, thesaurus and grammar needs in the
languages of their preference. It is present in OOo for a long time,
but there was no will to squash it.
There is no easy fix for this, due to the way it works on windows.
There are static dummy-document that are then in turn copied to the
location where you invoke the contextmenu→New function.
So LO/OOo could only fix it by recognizing on open that it is a
"shellnew" document and then replace it by itself using a document
based on the default template.
This is no problem if only OOo/LO is used to modify the documents, but
of course when other applications are used to edit the documents,
they'd ignore that property and then you risk that LO/OOo will throw
away the existing changes when not checking for modifications, etc.
Thanks for your analysis Christian.
Is it possible the L10N list would nominate this bug as a stopper for
LO3.4 or 3.3.2 or whichever version of LO?
Well, without a proposed fix....
I agree on that that couldn't be a stopper, however there is a lot of
duplicates on the issue, so it shows that it is often meet by a certain
population of users.
What I wanted to do is open the bug on our own tracker to have it in our
radar and ask Fridrich to have a look at it.
Kind regards
