Talking of which, I've had a problem with RTF import in abi... the
other day I was working on a document with 2 embedded graphics images
for display in word, so saved my work as rtf. Not only did word not
display the graphics correctly (only the first was displayed, but
twice... a known bug, in bugzilla), but abi then fell over when I
tried to re-import the file... haven't checked if this happens with
"simple" rtf files (i.e. not graphics), will explore a bit today...
