​Calligra supports multiple formats in the Save As dialog.. Could you be
more specific?
Maybe it means level of support?

On the other hand we know that availability and timing for updates in
_Ubuntu_ in general is rather suboptimal.

Special cases, for example Kexi has better support for file formats than
the Kubuntu's default -- Kexi directly supports MDB and does not drag Java
dependencies to the desktop. Kubuntu's counterparts do not have these
advantages.

​Yes, always. ​

Scope of the challenge shows that such projects can be easily of the size
of entire KDE. There's probably more of specifications to
implement/maintain/test than in web browser projects.
