This is an interesting discussion: I've come across so many people who always save in .doc/.docx format in LibreOffice, even when they're not sharing files with MS Office users. They just believe it's the "standard" and don't pay attention to (or even know about) ODF. Then they complain that tiny things change or move between saves and loads, and I have to explain that for working in LibreOffice, it's best to use its native format, always, and only use .docx etc. when absolutely necessary. So I like that idea of "Save for others", or a similar variant. Maybe something to raise with the design community...
