My only experience with entering furigana so far as been with MicroMuck 
Wrrd, but that was always the case with that too - you either have to 
select it bits and pieces if you want to do a really clean job - or else 
just let it do a sentence at a time, print it out, and then cross out 
the junk you don't want to see (hiragana written over katakana for 
example).  I've been meaning to try it out with OpenOffice - if I 
discover something about it that seems relevant, I'll toss some text 
into the wires.
