Thanks for the feedback, this sounds better. > Also, re: "the image attribute" I'm curious if it's embedded as > SVG/PNG metadata ( maybe XMP, or something from > https://www.w3.org/TR/2003/REC-PNG-20031110/#11textinfo )?

After unzipping this .odt, I can see the original LaTeX in content.xml in a <svg:desc> node. I tried copying and pasting the image from LibreOffice to Inkscape, but I couldn't find the original LaTeX in the resultant SVG.
