--- Comment #1 from Mike Kaganski <mikekaganski at hotmail.com> ---
What is the real advantage here? If you have all your files in a single
directory, you already have a portable project.

ODM is *not* a "container". It is a method to centrally *manage appearance* in
the linked documents through styles: the main purpose is to have styles used in
linked documents to be re-defined in master document, and have the result be
consistent, even if sub-documents used different definitions of those styles.
It also allows to have several representations of the same text: you may have
different masters with different style definitions, and depending on which
master you use, you have a CSS-like change of appearance.

All this is unrelated to other document types; so this is clearly out of scope
of master documents.

IMO => WONTFIX.
