--- Comment #2 from Heiko Tietze <heiko.tietze at documentfoundation.org> ---
We pondered over this in the ESC considering the warning on save. Would be nice
to learn what exactly is not compatible. But it requires every single aspect to
be listed somehow in a table, hard to imagine.

Your proposal goes even further. You assume users load _and save_ alien formats
thinking only of Microsoft's proprietary file types. But how about reading a
simple text file in order to store as ODF? Or to improve an alien document and
eventually saving as ODF? Or CSV => ODS, MD => ODP, etc.

Sound to me like a hHuge effort with limited benefit, obviously
over-engineering.
