In Openoffice 3.0.1 (on Debian GNU/Linux) opening a URL in a text file

I seem to recall having previously had the latter behaviour (which is the
one I want). Is it possible to change it?
I suspect not. If plain click opened the hyperlink, it would be difficult
to place the cursor within the hyperlink text to edit it.
That's true - but the way for changing that on Windows is as follows →

Hmm. This option is *enabled* in both Calc and Writer but they behave
differently: in Writer I have to Ctrl-click to open the link in my
browser but in Calc I only have to click. What is happening, please? Oh,
OOo 2.4.1 on Win XP Pro.
