I'd like to get opinions (and preferably consensus) on removing old
Microsoft formats "save as" support, specifically:
Word 6.0
Word 95
Excel 5.0

One of the virtues of OOo, and LibO, was the number of file formats that
it can read from, and write to.

Can that code be rewritten to "Export As"?
Alternatively, can that code be rewritten as a user-installable extension?

IOW, retain the ability of LibO to read/write those file formats. If the
only way to have that functionality is thru an extension, then so be it.
(Those file formats can join DAISY, Braille, and umpteen other file
formats that LibO can either read from, or write to, only by using a
user-installed extension.)
