This is simply an empty part, that is loaded and displayed when a document contains an invalid part - either because the handler for this part isn't available - or because the embedded document is external (out of the store) and unavailable The goal of the part is to show a placeholder in the document, to tell about the unavailable part, but also to be able to save itself as it was, so that it's possible to edit a document with a missing child document without losing information. Test documents: test-kounavail.kwd points to an invalid mimetype (case 1) test-kounavail2.kwd points to a non-existing external document (case 2) David Faure
