At least it has been fixed that the text is shown. Unfortunately it only shows as a single column.

The reason is that column information is stored in sections, which KWord doesn't handle at the moment. KOffice loading does handle section ( which is why the text appears now), but getting the info from the loader to KWord is a larger task that can't be accomplished now.

subtasks needed is:
 - store section properties in a new Format
 - delimit sections by inserting TextFrames in the QtTextDocument and attach the format
 - huge refactor of KWord to take advantage of this
