This looks fine.

Thanks for taking the time to forward this upstream, that is great work.
Perhaps documenting where to find information about short cut keys
at the debugging openoffice page would be useful.  Additionally, I agree
with hggdh here that the bug should be Invalid as nothing was actually
fixed in the Ubuntu package or upstream.

Linking to upstream bug reports is quite useful, thanks for doing that!

This looks good to me.  I notice the bug has a low importance now but
you mentioned a medium one.  What makes it a medium one in your opinion?

I'm not certain if subscribing the translation team was the "right" way
to proceed but it seems to have worked.  I don't think is wrong but I'm
curious - what lead you to do this?

The work you've done here looks good to me too.

This looks fine, I'd have liked to seen the workaround in the
description though.

You steps to recreate the bug report look great!  I agree with the
importance you'd give the bug.

This looks good to me too, again I'd like to see the work around in the
description though.
