> CD05 indicates that functions that are not part of the spec should be written out using a prefix (com.microsoft...).  This causes problems with user-defined functions as well as future functions to be defined later.  There has been discussion about adding the "User." prefix to user-defined functions, but how do future functions fit in?
> Assuming that a new function is added in ODF-Next, implementers of ODF 1.2 may read a future file and encounter one of these future functions.  It will be unclear how to treat the future function without some designation.  We want to avoid future functions being tagged with "User."
