Ironically, ODF explictly allows implementation-dependent content. Furthermore,
XML inherently allows extensions to a schema; a document processor should
preserve original content not defined in the schema. Something to look into in
LO.

Anyway - something I agree with - a collection of sticky properties (grouped as
a style) would be more useful than the general case of every cell having an
independent set of sticky properties. It would require the implementation of
Paste Special Sticky to look at the style attached to a cell to see what is
permissible to copy. Would that fly?

   3.1.1 General

   OpenDocument defines two methods of document representation:

       •A single XML document. 

       •A collection of files within a package ([ODF1.3-Part-2:Packages]), each
of which stores a part of a complete document. 

   ...

   A package may also contain image files, embedded objects and
implementation-dependent files.
