Build Identifier: 3.7.0

It is amazing to have ODF support for BIRT! Thanks a lot to the person who has done that work!
 
Here are my two suggestions for improvement it.
1. Numbers in the original viewer should remain numbers in the ODF. (Now they are converted to strings, the number of decimals does not match the format settings.)
2. Write the header of the columns only once in the ODF (like in the Excel 2003 XML export). (Now they are repeated like in the PDF / HTML view).

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Export Report 
2. OpenDocument Spreadsheet
