Description

Since CKAN is for maintaining open data I am always wondering why it even supports Excel format (XLS) for previewing but not any [Open Document Format](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenDocument) like ODS.

So, why not adding ODS support for the embedded preview?

Research direction

Start by reviewing CKAN's existing XLS support for the embedded preview and then determine where an ODS preview integration would belong in the main CKAN repository. Done means ODS files can be previewed in the embedded interface with the existing preview behavior preserved; this deprecated ideas issue does not identify files or tests.
