While I'm certainly looking forward to a real Mac-native version

once the Aqua version is complete?
I ask because the X11 version actually provides some advantages
for some Mac users -- specifically those who work with complex
Asian scripts such as Devanagari and Tibetan (this may be true of
others as well) for which the Macintosh and Windows/Linux
implementations are different enough that cross-platform sharing
of Unicode-based documents is impossible.
An another big big advantage of the X11 version : you can run OOo
as a service without having to run a Window Server session. We use
OOo for doing mailing stuff from a Java (WebObjects) applications
and it works quite well without having to log a user.
If ooo is running in headless mode, it shouldn't need a window
server. Surely there will be some way of doing that. I'm not saying
it should be a top priority.
