Considering how little time has been spent on the HTML exporter -- what was
it Eric, two hours total? -- I'm not shocked that more work is needed here.

Remember that there are currently three ways to figure out which features
are supported where in AbiWord's file format:

  1. http://www.abisource.com/feature_matrix.html
  2. abi/docs/AbiWord_DocumentFormat.abw
  3. abi/src/wp/impexp/xp/ie_exp_AbiWord_1.cpp

Of these,

  #1 shows how complete our support is across the entire product,
  #2 has a bunch of useful explanative prose, and
  #3 is definitive.

HINT: Take a look at the UCS_LF case in #3. :-)
