Although this can be considered an openoffice bug - I think there is a problem also in the gnome-session manager as it's not informing the user about the program causing the problem - in my case the program silently fail, proper behavior must be to warn user about the program causing the problem.
Also I wonder if the shutdown in gnome-session is too weak (compared with shutdown for example).
Which signal is trying to send to the programs to shutdown? How much timeout is allowed before killing it?
I think shutdown from gnome-session must behave similar to shutdown from system. Am I wrong? [Sorry if I've missed some previous discussion about this]
I have the feeling that ubuntu is the linux distro more focused on usability and best user experience - so these kind of things must be sensitive, IMHO an underdeveloped program (any) must not stop a shutdown raised by user.
