HI :)
+1
It might be nice to have an Extension that allows people to import LaTeX or 
have a program that can export a LaTeX document to Odf but it's not something 
that many people would use.  I doubt it would even be usefully possible.  A lot 
of the advantage of the format would be lost when converting it.  

A far better example than my stupid earlier one of spell checkers.  Many of us 
have probably never even heard of LaTeX but are somewhat reliant on decent 
spell checkers (ie NOT the MS ones).  
Regards from
Tom :)
