Currently, OOo Writer opens text files (e.g. *.txt, *.srt) in html format
instead of plain text format, if the text body contains tag-like text such as
<i>, </i> etc.

For example, a plain text file containing the following 5 lines will open in
Notepad or Microsoft Word as such:
1<i>abc</i>
2
3<i>def</i>
4
5<i>ghi</i>

But OOo Writer will open the same text file in html format instead, and display
the text body differently:
1abc 2 3def 4 5ghi

-> with letters in italics;
-> not as 5 lines but 1 line;
-> <i> and </i> not treated as plain text, but as html tags.

Actually, OOo Writer hangs or lags when large .srt files having these <i>, </i>
tags are opened. I have to use Notepad to open them, do a Ctrl-A then copy-paste
all the text into OOo Writer (to do spellchecks & editing).
