Usually this is for "private cloud" just like owncloud, eyeos, and many
other web applications. Having a web application of OpenOffice, this should
be something that can be already found on many web editors that export to
ODF. Like for example WebODF or FengOffice-CE.
However for most people, an editor and not just a reader should be used.
This means that maybe an experimental UX design of a "openoffice-like" UI
on something like FCKEditor, and Gelsheet.

Why would anyone want a cloud version? Using the cloud makes software a
service for which MS or others can charge a monthly access fee. That is the
sole reason anyone is promoting SaaS and the cloud.
The marketing model is to offer "free" access to the cloud to get people
used to the concept, then implement charges after they have co\ome to rely
on access.
