[GRASS5] db.oodbfedit: a _very_ simplistic approach to dbf attribute editing

Hello,

Playing around with the question of how to allow spreadsheet-style attribute
editing from the GIS Manager - mostly to satisfy demand from colleagues, I
came up with this _very_ simplistic solution using openoffice.

This is more of a proof of concept than anything else. The question for me is
whether we should try to write a specific tcl routine to access the different
types of databases available, or whether we should just use existing tools
such as openoffice (but which probably won't be installed for many users).

So here's the little bit of code. Any comments and reflections welcome.

Moritz
