Office on-the-web only saves in docx.  Office 2013/4 will quite possibly
drop .doc export,
just as Word 6/95 export was dropped from Word 2003 - after a failed
attempt to drop it
from 2000.  MS can do this because they are the market leader.  To fail to
offer even
rudimentary docx export would damage LibO's market penetration.

my thoughts anyway


Another consideration is that if we ignore docx until MS do drop .doc which
is long term inevitable, we could end  up playing catch up in order to get
filter that are good enough to be credible.  Better to start now and
incrementally improve them over time.
