Hmm, didn't think about that.
This won't do much though, since styles default to align=auto, it basically
means that the version 1 thing will never be written out.

OOo is supposed to ignore attributes it doesn't know about, so we're not
really doing anything wrong here, by using our own attribute...

Do you mean that office-version is really the OOo version, and that it
doesn't create any problem to omit it? In that case we might as well
omit it completely, it feels a bit strange to optionally set it.
