--- Comment #2 from László Németh <nemeth at numbertext.org> ---
@Mike: You are right, the extra functions mean potential back compatibility
problem in this form. It seems for me, both Writer and Word use obsolete
formula syntax, and the future solution (in the case of Writer and the ODF
standard) would be to replace the recent formula engine, adding a formula
conversion for old files. But I don't know, whether it's possible to record my
interoperability extension with a relatively simple namespace change.
But most of the extra functions have a full-compatible preliminary version in
the git, so maybe it's possible to re-use those for the ODF export to avoid
back-compatibility problems. Thanks for the report.
