And my decision is this: given that LibreOffice and friends can readily import
CSV files, I am reluctant to add something that

- requires a Python library that is not packaged for Debian
- requires direct execution by the webserver of a non-core utility, which opens
Koha up to the potential for an attack via an untrusted executable called
csv2ods getting onto the system PATH.

I'm especially reluctant to do so in the face of the existence of two
alternatives for creating ODS files:

[1] Extending the code in C4::ImportExportFramework
[2] The existence of the OpenOffice::OODoc Perl module.
