This is sort of a diversion, but I've heard talk from time to time
about writing such an editor as an Emacs mode.  As an existing
example, there's `enriched.el'.  (Open etc/enriched.doc for an
example, or look at it with find-file-literally to see the contents as
they appear on disk.)

A full ODF editor would be a major undertaking.
