Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: openoffice.org

When I attempt to do an File -> Open and enter a valid URL OO writer is
ignoring the protocol and always attempting to open the file via the
file system.

To repeat:
1) Go to the File -> Open dialog
2) Enter any valid URL - i.e. http://www.google.com/
3) You will get a dialog indicating that writer is attempting to stat() (a 
worthless error message for a regular user btw) a file that includes some 
predefined prefix with the URL you entered appended to it, minus a second slash 
after the transport protocol.
