Regarding your question; I've no clue as to why Firefox is involved other than Coren's comments (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openoffice.org/+bug/93546/comments/18).

http://qa.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=87375 evolves into an ldap and mozilla discussion, yet the original issue was that the Thunderbird address book is missing from (U)OOo +
The Ubuntu version is missing:
- Mozilla / Netscape
- Thunderbird
- KDE address book
- LDAP address book
yet they were (and still are) available in Standard OpenOffice.org OOo versions.

Chris filed a bug on OOo:
http://qa.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=87375
However the bug/issue in question is not with standard OOo, but with the Ubuntu/Novell/go-oo/ximian builds which are a branch of the standard OOo builds.

IMO if this were to be escalated to an upstream, it should be to go-oo ((http://www.go-oo.org/)), not OpenOffice.org. The Ubuntu OOo builds (correct me if I am wrong Chris) are built from the go-oo branch.

My suggestion of getting you involved is to to the supposed mozilla issue; if it is an issue per 87375 et al, then it is helpful for someone that is aware of the newer mozilla builds/transitions from SeaMonkey 1.1.x to 2.0 an Thunderbird 2.x to 3.x.
