Jiri: Both of these people work for professional organizations where the 
organizations have settled on the .docx format as their default document 
format. For one of these people, installing LibreOffice at his 
university is simply not an option for now. The other person works for a 
large music organization that has also settled on MSO although she is 
advocating LibreOffice with some sort of success, but not yet endorsed 
by the organization.

Tom: Both of these people are already exporting their files in .doc or 
.pdf files. The problem with this is that they now have a ton of files 
that have been doubled; they are both at the admin levels of their 
organizations and have very active roles in committees.

Being able to "Send" more than one file at a time would eliminate 
completely the need to export physical files to hardrives.

I was thinking if LibreOffice were able to do this, then people would 
grow to depend on the ODF file formats more and view any other file 
format as being less important. The perception to users would be that 
ODF formats are the "defacto" format and other are really "sub-formats" 
to the defacto OFD formats.

Perhaps add this as a feature request?
