Agreed. Any complex software with which I'm going to spend a significant amount of time has to have strong and well integrated automation features (call it macros or whatever you will). Otherwise I'll look elsewhere, at least in the long run. (On a slightly related note, one thing that I really, really like in LO and always have missed in MS Office is the ability to use regular expressions for search and replace... in a sense, that's also a sort of powerful automation feature!) @Tom: wishing for a reliable and powerful macro language is NOT asking for an MS clone!
