I have not seen what you describe. If you look at
http://documentation.openoffice.org/manuals/OOo2.x/user_guide2_draft.pdf
or the Setup Guides you will see they load quickly and internal
cross-references are honoured. So, I suggest that you enter an issue into
Issue Tracker as this is the best way to have problems such as this
evaluated.
If you haven't already registered, do the following:
1. To file an issue you must register with OOo by clicking the
My Pages tab and selecting the Register link
http://www.openoffice.org/servlets/Join
2. Fill in your information
3. Reply to the confirmation email that will be sent to the address
you provided.
4. Once you have confirmed, go to www.openoffice.org again 5. And
click on the "My Pages" tab from which you can file and find issues.
Thanks for bringing this to our attention. It is important that you file
any examples with the issue to ensure your need is understood.
