You would be surprised how complex the issue of metadata can be in case
of OpenDocument. E.g. I recently talked to philologist researchers, who
e.g. would like to annotate greek texts with meta data. We had a short
discussion about meta data support in OpenDocument, which is different
to your requirements. What I learned from that is, that we definitely
need to do some fundamental research. As a researcher I'm sure you
agree, that a broader approach is called for, given the depth of the
issue. We should not rush this and focus on special cases (e.g.
bibliography). I also believe that users of OpenDocument will appreciate
this.
Best regards,
Florian
