It was not so much of an Omni-problem, as nuking the lockfile.plist wouldn't allow the program to open (as the ninjas would have recommended). I knew it was going to be a permissions and ACL problem from the user move, and since I copied the application support and plists in preferences, I knew I could always go back.

Was able to run the "secret" permissions and ACL repair tool (password reset in terminal after booting off the recovery partition) after copying the plists and support files back into the library, and everything is honky dory now and back. I know enough to get me in trouble, and know enough to make copies of things and backups before making changes in case my limited knowledge backfires ;)
