OOoDI - OpenOffice org Dictionary Installer - suggest you include in OpenOffice or the repository

May I suggest you add the OpenOffice org Dictionary Installer (OOoDI) into the version of OO you have included or the repository so that SimplyMEPIS users who don't use standard American English can have an easy time of selecting and installing other dictionaries via this special wizard designed specifically for OpenOffice. I know using an Australian dictionary would save me a lot of heart ache, but to add it in at the moment requires me to know what I'm doing with the tarballs and all that other stuff which I'm still learning about.
Having a simple wizard like this is readily available and an automatic part of OpenOffice would be very useful. I've tried to install an Australian or English - British dictionary through Synpatic and it has so many choices it's a bit confusing. But when I select the first item that looks like a simple English Dictionary and it tells me it wants to uninstal core aspects of OpenOffice, I back off, cancel, and wonder what's happening. A bit of investigation shows it's for a different version of OO, something the average general user won't even notice or bother checking. Use of this lovely little wizard will simplify the process and make it easier for us all.
Thank you
