When exporting ODT to DOC, I either use the picture graphic by its lonesome and add a caption below or else place the graphic and its caption in two or more table rows. The latter is useful when a screenshot of a toolbar or horizontal menu might be in the top row, the second row might have two or three columns for describing what those icons or menus are named, and then the third row contains the figure caption. This avoids using hard spaces or tabs for layout purposes for the definition section of the figure. Having differing definitions for tab settings could be a problem if their definitions are not identical for different users.
Interesting idea using a text table to add specific captions below toolbar buttons; smart!
I wanted to include some OOoAuthors chapters in my portfolio (DOC format) on my recent Elance.com account--showing its editing changes, etc. However that chapter used frames for most of its figures, and those figure captions within frames were all messed up after the DOC conversion. So, I made another ODT version and went in and just pulled the pictures and their captions from the frames and inserted them into tables for that conversion to DOC.
PDF might be another choice, but if it was useful in this case, you would already know that... I only say that because I consider you resourceful.
I don't suppose you have an automated way to convert from frames to text table...
