This is something that I hope to get fixed soon (i.e. in the next few days).
HTML is a big spec to fully support.
Until then, you can also round-trip:
WML
RTF
XSL-FO
And still keep most (all?) of your document formatting, neither of which are
AbiWor'd proprietary format. BTW, our exported HTML is better than Netscape
composer's :-)
