I agree that all these features (headings, tables, lists, all that) should be able to be written as well as read. However, consider the interface for this: somehow, you have to let the user enter the data in the file, controlling what goes where and letting the user decide where lists start and end, plus allowing for undoing list itemizing and so forth. As an example, think of the complexity in just letting the user write his own table!
My point here is that, while writing all this formatting would be wonderful, I am guessing that the big reason we do not have it yet is that it has already been a year since they promised this upgrade, which they said would support .docx files and does not. They are probably focusing on getting this out the door, then making the mPower/PK users happy. Implementing something as complex as a table writer for keyword would have added a lot of time to the development of 9.1 and pushed it back even further. Just my thoughts.
