On a similar note, imagine the possibility of embedding JS in a

In my opinion we should lobby for that to become part of a future ODF
release.
So far the only way to get such dynamic functionality in is using
macros. But macros suck and
to my knowledge there functionality is not really specified in the
specs. Since this days we have
so many different Javascript-implementations around + they allow to
sandbox (unlike python
for exampl) + they are light and fast (unlike Java) and are already a
de facto standard in HTML
it would make sense to gt Javascript into ODF as official
"scripting-language". The hard work
would then be to define API/functionality exposed by the applications
so the Javascript can
do something with the application.
I just created
http://community.kde.org/Calligra/Proposal_for_scripting_in_ODF for that.
