Comparison is nice.  Using pandoc to do org->odt is definitely
substandard.

You can suppress fontification with this variable.

C-h v org-odt-fontify-srcblocks

>   3. Lacks latex code export

Use dvipng or mathtoweb.

1. Dvipng

   Pro: Less problematic
   Con: Uses png images of the formulae.

2. MathToWeb

   Pro: Uses MathML

   Con: MathToWeb is new kid on the block.  May prove to be problematic
   with more complex formulae.

   If ltx->mathml conversion is problematic for some equations, you can
   create "ODF files" (OpenDocumentFormula files created with
   LibreOffice Math) by hand and insert an Org link to them.

But tell me what you yourself want here.

I have some ideas on how xrefs can be improved for the section
titles. See http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-orgmode/2013-12/msg00585.html

I would like to hear what things you desire for xrefs to tables, figures
and equations.

You were making some remarks about position of captions...
