What you say may be right, but it is not related to the file format. An 
ODF document that is located at an HTTP address does have that comfort, 
too, and an HTML document that is located on the desktop does not have 
that comfort, too.

So, I fear solving this issue is unfortunately outside the scope of our 
TC. We may, however, provide some informative hints how to solve this 
issue, but we should keep this discussions separate from the discussions 
about the file format.
