There's another reason why I want to stick with Open Office; except, y'know, 
it stopped working. 

At least this gives me some hope to modify it with css. 

Also, I suspect that this is somehow related to the issue that causes Open 
Office not to work. When I reinstalled my OS, there were a lot of gtk2 and 
gtk3 things that I never noticed before. They only get noticed when there's a 
problem.
