--- Comment #6 from James D Howard <[email protected]> ---
The 2 attached files written by Excel show <HT> (tab) characters within cell
data.  The chars in the .XLS file can be seen in plain text.  The chars in the
.ODS file can be seen if the file is unzipped - look for the sequence
    ...<text:tab>ab<text:tab/>cd...
in the unzipped data.

Regrettably, I find that the display of text with literal <tab> chars within a
cell varies with version of Excel.  I'm most familiar with Excel 2007; a more
recent Excel (2013) displays <tab> at the end of the text within the cell. 
Nonetheless, all versions I've tried are tab-preserving with save and restore
(re-read).

Sigh -- it appears there is general inconsistency about the behaviour around
<HT> handling.
