Aren't we cleaning bloatware, offloading useless code, improving security,

The no
ise I had to fight in a 120.000 desktop deployment I am managing, by the
IT security dept who almost made me write under oath that these stupidities are
not a security threat.
Sorry, but I had pretty tought times dealing with that to have fun with. It is
not. OOo and LO are the underdogs in a (any) migration situation and easter eggs
is another ammo for those who want to go back to Microsoft Office. I rather
prefer not to give'em that sweet taste.
No matter how good or fun is your easter-egg, it puts you a label of lack of
seriousness when it comes to address the enterprise needs or code quality
reputation.
