Does the ContentChannel method (posting from Word or similar) work well with uBlogsy for someone?

Here is how it works out of the box for me (VERSIONS):
I have to set the Content Channel up to put posts in a Year folder. When I create a post from Word, the title becomes the name of the node (not uBlogsy title) and the content is correctly formatted in the content section.
   However, since the uBlogsy title and date isn't filled in (not to mention Author etc), the post cannot be published directly.
   Editing existing posts works, though only for editing the content (not title etc).

This would be solved if we could write glue logic somewhere: for a specific user*, we would know what author and time to fill in.

It would also be nice if our code would put the node in the correct datefolder, but it's not completely necessary. We could have a specific login for every year (author A, blog B, year 2012 / author A, blog B, year 2013 etc).

So, for the actual question: has someone done this? Is there an existing, cleaner way of doing this? If not, where would I need to add/change code? Pointers appreciated, I'm a beginner to Umbraco.

*There is one umbraco user per author and per blog (and per year, see following paragraph)
