the future of OpenDocument in Abiword?

I have brought this up before, and the answer was that because
OpenDocument didn't play nice with Abiword's internals (or something
like that, dunno what it was exactly anymore?) it was decided against
using it as the default format.

But will it remain like this in the future? We all think sane defaults
are important, don't we? Yet still the abw format is the default, which
is solely used by Abiword while OpenDocument is gaining more and more
popularity.

In the release notes of Abiword 2.4.5 it is mentioned that a massive
amount of bugs in the OpenDocument import and export filters were fixed.
When will the OpenDocument import and export filters have matured enough
to justify using OpenDocument as the default format?
