I left out the words [consumer], [stuff] and [bug-compatible], I translated it something like that: There is still some pre-ODF12 and ODF1.2 only in use out there, where our users want a more backward-compatible ODF 1.2 extended mode, that uses deprecated functions in 1.2, and/or is compatible to older OOo version. Therefore the ODF 1.2 Extended (compat) mode was introduced. But as you, I'm still not really convinced by my translation.
