I don't have any comments on the focus problems, but I find that openoffice actually ignores having isfloating set to false in my rules. I'm guessing that its insistence on not tiling is a side-effect of how manage() handles windows initialized with fullscreen dimensions: by making them floating, no-border clients AFTER calling applyrules(). I just deal with this by using MODKEY+shift+space to toggle isfloating on the client.
