Very interesting article. I agree with both sides - Users need to be ... Prompted politely (but FIRMLY), and Developers have the right to request that Hacks / Haxies be removed to determine where the problem lies.
Is there someplace on Trinity/NeoWiki that fully list all the aplications found that have been shown to cause problems with NeoOffice (APE, Haxies, background processes like Seti and Folding@Home, and a couple of others I can't remember)?
It's quite a list and if there was a summary of Patricks reasons and those that BareBones points out, it would be ... a "little" easier requesting Users to understand what the problems are. I keep looking for ways to gather up the many discussions on a problem and put them in a single list/Wiki so that Users support can be reduced, at least a little. A little pain now can save some support effort later?
Philip ( did you RTFM before you reported a problem? Can you hear me Now?!? )

Absolutely. That's how most of the stuff got into the wiki (and how some of us got addicted to the wiki!). The challenge is getting people to read/search the wiki (or even trinity) first
