If you are talking about the code that maintains a zip archive
containing the document together with external data like images and
such, then KOffice has this already, yes: look in koffice/lib/store.
Unfortunately, this code is not usable from kdeedu, because we can't
make kdeedu dependent on KOffice ( due to the broken kde module system
:( )..
