I started implementing something like this. The code is rather ugly
(I'm not so fluent in C, and not familiar with the git codebase ...),
but it gives an idea, and seems to work.
If you're interested in having a look (but I'll have to cleanup the
code before asking for a detailed review), here's the patch.
In the particular case of OpenDocument files, that makes a few tens of
lines of C in git itself (once and for all), but it makes it totally
trivial for the user to configure git to get all of "git diff". Sounds
promising to me.

Subject: [PATCH] Prototype for a textconverter filter in git-diff.
That feature is similar to the custom diff driver, but the user only has
to provide a text filter (a command to convert a file into a plain-text
representation). Git takes care of diffing, mode change, ...
In particular, with
[textconv "odt2txt"]
command=odt2txt
*.ods textconv=odt2txt
*.odp textconv=odt2txt
*.odt textconv=odt2txt
One can use "git diff" on OpenOffice files (including "git diff --color"
and friends).
This could be extended so that "git blame" can use it also.
