trust me, it's harmelss. I've done it multiple times.

it can't be there since you cannot create a brand new one. the workaround is to
enter an entry in a language you don't use (let's say iceland) and then rename
the dat file which is created inside the user profile. this is what I did to
create the acor_en.dat file and it worked.

what we miss at the moment is the ability to directly create an unlocalized
variant of an autocorrect list since in the language dropdown menu of the
replacement table you can only select localized versions of languages like
English(UK), English(US), English(Australia) etc. etc. and you don't have the
chance to select a plain English language item with no indicated variant.

What I think that we should tweak that UI and allow support for variantless
languages.

why don't you downlaod the portable LibreOffice version from WinPenPack?
link is here:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/winpenpack/files/X-LibreOffice/releases/

then you can put in a USB key and bring it with you everywhere.
