	Sounds fun :-) if it is a generally useful one, I'd strongly recommend
doing it as native C++ in the core - it'll be very substantially faster,
and of course we can then ship it with the core product.

	The normal way to do this would be with some ODF <-> [other]
transformation in a filter. An example of an import filter that does
validation, in java is here:

	Cf. above, if you can help write up a nice nice page in the LibreOffice
wiki, with some sample / template / "Hello World" / skeleton code making
this easy as you unwind it, that'd be much appreciated.

	All the best,

		Michael.
