That's how I would have done it, Keith.  Unfortunately, I'm not familiar
enough with ODT or Giot to be of more help.  But your logic is completely
sound.

>From my end, I'm about to begin a com[rehensive review of the most recent
version of Getting Started. I'm going to walk through the whole thing,
looking for language that might be more clear.  Should enough examples of
that surface, I can construct a glossary.

For example, the chapter on Base states:

Databases bear a superficial similarity to the more widely encountered
spreadsheets,
but there are important differences. A database consists of a number of
columns or
fields that contain the individual pieces of data. Groups of fields make up
a table of
the database. When creating a table, you also determine the characteristics
of each
field in the table. This is one key difference from spreadsheets. Each
field or column
may contain only one kind of data.

Clear enough to anyone who's worked with databases, but perhaps not so to
new users.  It's things like that I'll look for.
