Repair or enhancement...
(Side note on the subject: I can imagine that somehow the Python 
component could be useful.)

Sounds reasonable.
However ... TDF does not employ developers.
Developers are employees of sponsoring companies, or students, or 
(other) volunteers, or self employed...

So either your company makes a deal with one of the supporting companies 
for the work, or find another developer to do the work.

Of course it makes most sense if the developer that picks up the task 
has experience with LibreOffice/OpenOffice.

I have hardly any experience in other open source projects, but I can 
imagine that setting up a page with bounty-projects, is a reasonable 
approach to broadcast both your and other wishes/possibilities.

What do you think?

Regards,
