You're right, this seems specific to Leopard:

<http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/TextEdit>

Similarly, QuickLook (Leopard-specific) supports ODT too. Possibly in  
the same way as RTF has been since the early days of OS X, namely only  
the most basic features of the format are supported. (Try to open a  
RTF file containing tables in TextEdit, you'll see what I mean.)

Ironically, even the most recent version of iWork ('08) doesn't seem  
to support ODF:
