Treating (and automatically resaving) an empty file as an OLE2 object is IMHO a
bug, but it is not directly relevant to this bug report...

No. An empty file is never a valid ODF document. Or any other kind of document,
FWIW, with the exception of plain text. Making a special case for zero-sized
files in the all the detectors, to only detect by extension, is IMHO not worth
the trouble. Also, I am not avare of any other application doing this.
