Hi David,
Sorry for the late answer. Indeed, I could reproduce the problem and fix it. With LibreOffice >= 3.5, annotations can't be within paragraphs anymore for ODS. When pod produces an error, it embeds it into an annotation that lies within a paragraph (this was the case in your sample file). For ODT it works, but for ODS it makes LibreOffice 3.5 and 4.0 crash. LibreOffice >= 4.1 does not crash anymore but does not show the error message: the annotation is ignored.
It is tricky to solve this problem. What I have done for the moment is to force the appy.pod renderer to raise an error when generating a file from an ODS template (param "raiseOnError", see https://bugs.launchpad.net/appy/+bug/1169217.
