I just committed changes toallow import filters such as the MsWord filter to 
insert special characters in <TEXT></TEXT> regions. Unfortunately, this 
results in on-disk changes to the way "&" characters are stored, so old 
kword (and kpresenter) files might not work as expected.

See http://lists.kde.org/?l=kde-koffice&m=96185208028048&w=2 for background 
information. I changed kword and kpresenter to the new style - I could not 
see how the other koffice applications treated this problem. FWIW, the 
affected files were:

kword/char.cc (and .h)
kpresenter/kptextobject.cc
lib/koml/komlParser.cpp

and some of the MsWord filter files. I would request all other application 
owners to consider if similar changes are required, as it would be 
unfortunate to find any more of these after we ship...

Thanks, Shaheed
