We never really put a lot effort in the oasis extractor. If you have
specific knowledge of ODF and your analysis is that it's better to
extract in a different way, being less picky, etc, then it's probably
indeed the case that the oasis extractor can be improved.

Feel free to write a patch and submit it to us.
