I'm almost sure that doesn't break binary compatibility since it's a template 
and thus the code would end up on the app side and not the library side, but i 
didn't want to lose sleep making sure.

Once we break ABI we could merge them back, if people realize :D

calligra has a few generators for odt, odp using calligra libs.
