Peter,
You'll be surprised to know that I can't seem to type French with my
Japanese qwerty keyboard, whatever localized version of OOo I try, in
whatever local I launch X11 (I am on MacOSX).
I am sorry I can't help you. But be sure that you are not alone. The
worst is that you don't have to do _anything_ on OSX to have native
support for the languages I need and you need. I am not sure the
situation is the same for Windows (it seems not). But basically, the
conclusion I reached is that OpenOffice is not the best choice for
multilingual users (at least, multilingual in slightly exotic
environment). It is a little disapointing.

It's mostly a matter of what the OS allows/provides.
I'm using Ubuntu,and I can change keyboard layouts very easily, even to
such languages as Kyrgyz or Uzbek (yes, I've even fooled around with it
a bit).
When I have the keyboard layout set for Russian, for instance, it
becomes a Russian keyboard, which means that I have to do most
maneuvering by mouse, since the keyboard is then sending a signal that
isn't recognized as Alt-S or whatever.
I don't think the problem can be blamed on OpenOffice.
