Andrew,

I forgot to mention to basic approaches.

   1. Create the before and after state of the desired document in your ODF
   application of your choice. Save the document. Take a look at the XML you
   need to create.
   2. What I suggest and I am not sure if it exists is to go in the W3C DOM
   tree to the previous row and clone it, which is basic DOM functionality:

   
https://xerces.apache.org/xerces-j/apiDocs/org/w3c/dom/Node.html#cloneNode(boolean)

Now it should help!
