That is exactly my point. The Import should be as perfect as possible and there 
should be an Export to... (like in Gimp) menu option or an Extension for those 
who wish to keep using MS XML (and this function should be as perfect as 
possible, obviously). But saving and working on a document should always use 
Open Document as a format.

That could be added to the already existing (and unfortunately unmaintained) 
extension ;)
