Styles and Export to Word OO3 beta

Currently the Word HTML export creates Word styles that should be the 
same as the named styles in the Outliner file and assigns the proper 
style attributes to the text. Sadly because of a limitation of Word's 
HTML parsing if a particular block has multiple classes assigned to it 
only the first gets used. I don't know if this is fixed in Word 2004.
