It would be trivial IMO for these apps to support "ott" as well, as
Thomas mentioned it is basically the same thing as an "odt".  They
probably just need to recognise the different mime type (each
OpenDocument archive has a 'mimetype' entry describing its type.)

Can't see why OpenOffice.org should remove a feature that's probably
useful to many people honestly.  I think it should be up to the other
apps to support "ott".
