Well for correct interopability with OOXML and other document formats, ODF will
need something to identify the difference between a shape and a horizontal
line, like how OOXML has it. OOXML uses the o:hr, o:hrstd, o:hrnoshade,
o:hrpct, o:hralign attributes of the <v:rect> tag to represent this difference.

I believe it is incorrect to import it as a rectangular shape with a fill color
and an undefined border line, but instead it should be imported as a defined
line shape, but with the ability to extend its height similar to a rectangle
shape. This will allow correct interopability with other document formats where
you can define the line style, which isnt possible with a rectangular shape.
