IMHO OpenOffice is just an example of application that illustrates a use-case 
scenario where this "feature" proves to be flawn.
If we decide that all downloads are to be opened on read-only mode by the 
target application, then we have to change the behavior of all the possible 
target applications for a download, if we want to be able to edit the file no 
matter its permissions:
- OpenOffice
- Koffice
- Video-editing Sw
- Audio-editing Sw
- Plaintext editors
...
you name it
