I can't really understand all these negative reactions. The fact that
macro's can only be allowed to run or not, without any discrimination
between those that try to (for example) write to external files and
those that don't, is stupid. Users are warned that macro's exist in a
document, but macro's can be very useful without having to do
potentially dangerous things.
IMHO, OO.o's reaction ('Industry standard practice') shows a
complete lack of understanding of security issues.
