Hello.
I also think all office applications should use a common codebase for reading and writing the files, instead competing on one that supports certain file formats better than the rest. Think of it as something similar to FFMPeg/Libav, that could be used by all FOSS Office or reader applications. It can give a enormous support advantage over Microsoft products and at the same time improve the support with more developers involved. I think statements like this in the FOSS world are EXTREMELY SAD: "With this snapshot Calligra Office Words is claiming better compatibility with .docx than LibreOffice, and also claims to be approaching the best compatibility with legacy .doc formats." (taken from OSNews). Of course this is a personal idea I gave many months ago in some email here, but my lack of proper English and not explaining it correctly made it to be ignored.
