I agree it is a problem, but there is no perfect solution.
      * The OOo integration with GNOME is a joke.
      * Gnumeric and Abiword both have features that OOo has not.

As for planner, I’m not sure either. Maybe it’s not suitable for the
default installation.

In all cases, dropping gnome-office altogether is not the way to go,
since currently it’s the dependency that brings inkscape (which beats
OOo draw by knock-out), gimp and xsane.

Cheers,
