I post a wiki document on some thoughts of using ICU for more I18n functions implementation, http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Use_ICU_for_more_I18N_functions_implementation. I think the first three listed items can be implemented in late AOO versions, while the other items are long term targets or partially short term tasks. Please feel free to give any comments.
I like the page. The items are already sorted so the ones with the best benefit to effort ratio come first.
Using ICU more is a worthwhile goal, especially as the project used to have problems with taking advantage of newer ICU versions. Integrating more tightly with ICU should eliminate these problems and we'll be able to automatically leverage its progress.
