Most people who use openoffice are presumably working on opendocument documents. However they are quite likely to need to convert them to MS office format when they want to share them with others. At the moment this means using "save as" to create the word/excel/powerpoint document and then having to reopen the original document if you want to continue working on it. An example of how annoying this can be would be writing CVs. In my case I use one version of a CV as a template for creating the next one. I also keep returning to these various CVs to update them. Each time I create or update a CV I create a copy in MS Word format because employment agencies and others often like that. As well as being time consuming, this can get confusing as you switch back and forth between a number of files. Just being able to export a copy would be a lot easier.
