The W3C validator says it is all right (white space is allowed before DOCTYPE).
The character set, if it is declared, must be consistent with the BOM.
Both Firefox and Internet Explorer support this feature.
Any utility that aspires to the role of a word processor should examine the BOM

Is it even legal html to have something in that location (before the
doctype)? It might not be the best loose parser to show garbage if there
is an illegal character at that location, but garbage in garbage out...

I added a BOM (i think anyway) in the doctype and in web layout I didn't
see any garbage. In HTML source view i saw the garbage you mentioned in
the doctype. So I think I am unable to reproduce the problem you are

OR 2. Use Windows Notepad.
Or do you mean OpenOffice is not designed to open HTML files it did not
create? That would be really kewl…
