The examples you sent look great!

The discussion will be more effective on emacs-orgmode mailing list,
because most users of the ODT exporters are reading it.

And since your patch relates to a feature that is not (yet) part of
Emacs, Emacs maintainers will not have good incentives to discuss and
test it.

Yes.  We must avoid duplicate code as much as possible, especially
when the code lives in Elisp libraries that have the same name.

There is already some duplicate code that we need to take care of:
org-html.el vs. org-xhtml.el.

I would like to make progress on merging these two files.  Can you 
help me here?

Once we achieve this, we will be able to move the ODT exporter into
Org's core, and your patched version of htmlfontify will easily make its
way into Emacs core.

Tickling worked fine :)
