Description

For all's convenience, please use English to fill this issue.

Describe the solution you'd like
I use LibreOffice for most of my work, and I would love to be able to easily preview .odt files with QL-Win.
That's really all there is to it, I would attempt to make a plugin myself or help with some code but I've no knowledge of C#, as for technical knowledge of the format, as far as I'm aware, the ODT format are just a bunch of zipped XML files, I hope this helps somewhat.

Thanks for the lovely software you created and keep up the good work!
