As no patch is attached, I changed the type to "feature".

If you are working on refactoring code, please make sure that you sync with the
existing code quite often, otherwise odds are high that integration would become
a nightmare.

I also would like to see the code "owners" involved in the refactoring decisions
(->cc'ed hbrinkm).

BTW: I doubt that such filters are necessary at all:

- the export will not be better than with the binary export (as it uses the same
code)
- as more applications can read the binary format, interop will always be better
using the binary formats
- Office12 will get ODF import anyway; this is the first time in history where
MS will support our file format! Why spoil this moment by doing the same old
slave work again.

So it will be a huge time investment and in the end OOo will have more code
without any benefit for our users. But of course it's everybody's own choice
where he wants to waste his resources. ;-)

And at least code refactoring to make it better is indeed worthwhile.
