Like text to columns in Calc without resorting to a plugin? Seems like a

One I think that will go unfulfilled. First off Word suffers from the
same problem. I found out the hard way on one of my scripting projects. So
there's precedent. The second reason is that OOo developers have stated, many
times, that the format's not designed to be manipulated by anything other than
OOo so no consideration is given to either human readability or to the
usefulness of other tools. That, too, I found in reading up on putting ODTs
in some sort of repository.
