Unfortunately, nothing ever came of it -- the usual problem of insufficient time among those who were interested.

Isn't it rather because the discrepancies are small enough for most tasks and/or only require relatively painless workarounds ?

As a translator I systematically work with OOo and OmegaT, check the OOo file and only then convert and deliver without doing much final checking on the Word file. Most problems are already documented bugs for which I have found workarounds (like tables in tables cells in Word/Writer) and I have yet to hear a complaint from a customer.
