Fine; I hope that you also will specify the citation metadata then.
Using unspecified metadata for *relevant* parts of the document in OOo
can be the starting signal to kill ODF.

I'm not sure if citation data is a "relevant part of the document" but
without further investigation I assume it to be that.
