As I put quite some work into the ODF-testsuite[1] I do think that the 
above point is very valid and important to look into.  Expanding the 
testsuite to be more useful for odf-implementors would be great!

Unfortunately I am seriously strapped for time, and already backlogged on 
the mailinglist for the testsuite quite a bit.  I would happily help 
people build on top of my work, though.
