Sorry, guess I should have verified handling all the requirements :-)
I think there's two issues:
* I neglected to add the style I created to the document, so even in my
first example, columns had a default style (not the 1in) style I thought
I was creating.
* I don't think you want a paragraph style applied to the paragraph
text within the cell, but to the cell as a whole. I think if you
just try to associate it with the text.P() element the "width" of
the paragraph is probably just the text itself so there's nothing to
center, although that's just a guess.
I've attached an adjusted version that does center the spanned cell
for me. Note that I'll be the first to admit I don't necessarily
understand all the ODF style rules. In particular, I got into a lot
of trouble trying to add my styles to the overall document styles
(e.g., ods.styles) which I think can then be edited afterwards rather
than the automatic styles (ods.automaticstyles).
The former goes into the styles.xml file whereas the latter is included
right in contents.xml. For some reason using ods.styles kept causing
OpenOffice to crash trying to load the document, so I finally just went
with the flow and used automaticstyles. It's closer to how OO itself
creates the spreadsheet anyway.
