What makes this a really bad marketing line is that if the format is the 
most useful part of OOo 2.0, and someone does build a filter for Word,

I would have thought that tolerable graphics, a 64,000 row spreadsheet, and 
a native database were all more interesting.  It is really "the only new 
feature that wasn't already present in MS Office 97" -- actually, it's not 
even that, since PDF export is new in OOo 2.0
