OOo is not setting _NET_WM_STATE_FULLSCREEN so compiz is refusing to
allow it to resize to cover the panel, as it is supposed to. Metacity
appears to have a hack for this as when entering presentation mode it
says "Window manager warning: Treating resize request of legacy
application 0x44045cc (OpenOffice) as a fullscreen request".

We have disabled this workaround in compiz as it causes other problems
(with totem, for example). I'd rather not turn this back on, it should
be easy enough to drag OpenOffice.org out of the 1990s in this regard.
Well, easy for someone who has a computer that can compile it in less
than 8 hours.
