The filter code alone won't help you. To develop this new filter we had
to implement many features and APIs in Writer and elsewhere. Backporting
this code to 2.4.x is not an easy task (to say the least). I think it
will take more time doing this than waiting for the 3.0 to be released. :-)

Ciao,
Mathias
