The loading of password-encrypted Microsoft PowerPoint presentation is not supported

[froz]

Hi,

I got Microsoft PowerPoint presentation that I can’t open with LibreOffice 4.0.3.3 on Windows XP. I get error message:

Read-Error. The loading of password-encrypted Microsoft PowerPoint presentation is not supported.

I know I got this error few years back, because LibreOffice is not supporting MS-PowerPoint password-encrypted files.

Is there any plan when (and if) this kind of files could be opened in LibreOffice?

P.S. I see this is one of few limitations of LibreOffice.

Regards

Related bugs appear to be fdo#33538 and fdo#38370. It is interesting that the second bug is about LO wrongly declaring some PPT/X as being password-protected, when in fact they appear not to be.
