Made a lot of progress.
Here is what I tried:
Made a fresh user install.
Did customizations as that user. Even added a clip art and template.
Zipped up user/ I did exclude a couple things but did most everything.
Created /etc/openoffice/uno_packages
Linked to /etc/openoffice/uno_packages into /usr/lib/openoffice/share
copied zip into /etc/openoffice/uno_packages
ran /usr/lib/openoffice/program/pkgchkhk -s
It worked just fine! Need to check out a few points yet but at worst case I'm real close.
From my experience so far the only reason everyone with a multiuser environment is not doing it is because they do not know it can be done!
So my request can be changed to: Create /etc/openoffice/uno_packages directory link it to where ever you put share /usr/lib/openoffice/share
I can of course just do it myself as that is what the uno_packages directory is for can feel pretty confident that safe and will not be clobbered. The worst that could likely happen is an upgrade would remove the link and I doubt if that would happen.
If you put it in the package that covers that possibility.
