Great! You are going to design *and* to implement it :) Seriously: Didn't know you have this kind of background - did you ever think about getting the OOo build environment to fly, and start with some small innocent bug fixes? The one you mentioned in one of your last mails (selecting the upper-left corner in the table data view and the COPYing just copies a single cell) would be a) easy to fix and b) fit to your interests, it seems. Wanna give it a try?
