Abstract
Pre-bundled extensions - such as dictionaries for spell checking - will be displayed in the OOo installer module selection (during custom installation). This allows users to gain more control over what will be installed on their system. At the same time, managing such pre-bundled extensions (remove, update) will be moved from the extension manager into the application installer.

Help | User Interface Element Templates | Example Spec
Accessibility
Accessibility not impacted.
Migration
Bundled dictionaries in OOo versions previous to 3.3 were installed as shared extensions. Shared extensions are not migrated.
As of 3.3 bundled extensions will always be removed when uninstalling OOo. They are therefore not eligible for being migrated.
Configuration
Bundled extensions, such as the dictionaries, can be configured if they provide their own options pages in OOo's options dialog.

Open Issues
- Pre-bundled extensions still show up in the Extension Manager. This is considered a minor impact, as the user cannot change such extension in this place. Issue will be resolved in the future.
