IFilter is a standard protocol. What's here to prevent? OpenOffice is a
provider of the document format that's not supported by Windows. Windows
can't support every file format in the planet.

Does anybody know when IFilter (Vista Built-In Search) support is going

Without a court order, never.
With a court order, after Microsoft has paid $US$5 0000 000 000 in
fines for failing to abide by the court order.
Are there any plans to support document previews built into explorer on
Vista?
"No way, Jose", is Microsoft's unofficial response.
I have OpenOffice 2.3 and it still does not support any of the mentioned
features.
The issue is not that OOo doesn't support those features, but
Microsoft has a semi-official policy of preventing competing products
from functioning on its software.
