No idea - I would expect that if a document takes >3 seconds to load, people
context switch and do something else while it happens and then tend to keep it
open rather than closing it and re-opening it a lot. So not sure there is a
huge issue here.

Performance can always be improved - it is a bottomless pit. What hard data do
you have to make me think this is a serious issue in the absence of any
customer feedback.

The 16k columns issue - we get feedback on all the time - and is now being
fixed by Collabora =)

> I have no clue how the process of the ODF format change works.

Very slowly, and with great effort - backed up by lots of technical time spent
on proposals etc. the POC for R1C1 referencing is quite easy - and there should
be a good impact on file-size too I think.

OASIS can't do anything without an implementation - ideally two; so its best to
do something in LibreOffice first. To be fair - we could flush our ZIP stream
compression at a point and store some binary check-points for streams in a
separate stream - as a hack/overlay on what we do already that might do it -
there are lots of options - but you need several sharp engineers and lots of
their time to make progress.
