I’m quite sure about what I’m trying to accomplish but my english skills are betraying me when explaining it.

The whole thing is to develop one feature which, for instance, is currently bundled with Asterisk Desktop Assistant (see http://blogs.digium.com/2008/12/22/asterisk-desktop-assistant-windows-click-to-call-and-more/ ).
When you open a spreadsheet or document written by someone, your OpenOffice would automatically detect whatever looks like a phone number (that comes from the so-called SmartTags feature). Then it would simply add a contextual menu to it. Using this menu, you can dial the corresponding number.
