    Q: how does the HTML exporter handle this if it can
    never be imported without crashing? Did you mean RTF
    exporter above? It's a MSWord doc, so the RTF importer
    isn't getting used.

    Also, it's hard to make a reliable, accurate guess as
    to what position within the file you're at with
    respect to the total processing needed.
    ftell()/fsize() won't cut it for importing, and that
    information isn't always available anyway. It's a
    similar case for export. We could come up with
    something that's okay-ish, but it wouldn't ever be
    perfect, and I think it'd be a hack.

    I will look into import/export problems with this doc,
    though, tomorrow.

    Dom
