Metadata plays a role in this.

Meh. Somehow, "RDF" seems to be the cop-out answer du jour for
extending ODF - while being a badly-supported,
unclear-semantics-while-editing, and mostly structure-less approach
in practice.

Truth told, RDF was designed for a specific purpose (annotating and
representing information for resources in the web).

I was not really concentrated on details of this subject, but if I
got it right, some other apps already work with this (to a certain
extend maybe).
To me that sounds as a smart thing for the ODF ecosystem.
What do others think?

Use RDF for what it's been designed for, craft extensibility into
ODF via other means.

Thanks for your detailed report anyway!

Cheers,
