I second this request...

Correct me if I'm wrong, but backports is a reporitory for software that
is in the release+1, but compliles OK with the current release... This
is not very good in what relates to bug correction and user
experience... If a usr notices a bug in this backport, it will report it
through launchpad and he will see it being corrected in the next release
but not the current one... This is very frustrating. Also, if Open
Office correctly (or mostly) opens docx, etc... it would be a great help
into stealing windows market share to ubuntu...

Bugs are more tolerable than a missing feature to a general user. Also,
bugs get corrected in time... Missing features don't... And no,
backports is not an answer to this... It's a very good effort generally,
but I wouldn't trust it with my eyes closed on a package such as this...
