I'm not sure what you mean by shared documents, I was talking about plain ODT
documents like the ones we have in the attachment. But perhaps I'm
misunderstanding.

Let me try to clarify with an example. Suppose you had a text editor, which,
for some text files, when opening them, then saving them without any keypress
or editing action - would change the text in the saved file relative to the
original. Wouldn't that be a rather weird thing? The user does not expect
something like this to happen.

The same (one can argue) goes for the native editor of any format: It can
de-serialize it from a file, then re-serialize to the exact same document. And
this would be unlike importing from a "foreign" format like DOCX, where, when
saving to a DOCX, you can expect some changes due to the conversion.
