Versions between OOo2.3 and 2.4.1 indeed ignored the formula namespace and
imported the formula nevertheless, a bad decision, IMHO. Anyway, current
OOO300/DEV300 code does not ignore the namespace, and if a namespace other than
'oooc' or 'of' (urn:oasis:names:tc:opendocument:xmlns:of:1.2) is encountered the
formula string is not ignored but imported as a textual string cell, including
the namespace prefix, so at least the document's original intention isn't
completely lost. Which I consider a better behavior than Excel silently dropping
the entire formula, if I understood correctly.
Future versions may add capability of preserving the namespace prefix while
still importing the formula that then would generate an error when interpreted,
so a lossless roundtrip would be possible, but that's beyond the scope of this
issue, I think.
