I just tested quickly "LibreOffice: Insert -> Text From File" in
LibreOffice, the styled text (including comments) had been added within the
same paragraph, which I had the cursor in. Likely all styles had been
copied (someone might say merged), too. It would require tests for me on
what would happen in detail with:

   1. template styles, which are used by the new and main document,
   2. likely that automatic styles like lists and tables are being renamed
   3. if header/footer being added, too?
   4. ...

I am not aware of such high-level functionality existing, but you need to
take care that there are no conflicts with merging.

There is also another way to add functionality, to embed a document
completely into a new directory, which might be easier and I would give it
a try.
You can test it by inserting a chart into a spreadsheet to view the data,
this will look like this:
"Object 1" is a directory containing the chart with its own content.xml,
styles, xml, etc. This directory will have a "mimetype" for chart in the
manifest.xml
<office:body>
    <office:spreadsheet>
        <table:calculation-settings table:automatic-find-labels="false"
table:use-regular-expressions="false" table:use-wildcards="true"/>
        <table:table table:name="Tabelle1" table:style-name="ta1">
            <table:shapes>
                <draw:frame draw:z-index="0" draw:style-name="gr1"
draw:text-style-name="P1" svg:width="15.997cm" svg:height="9.005cm"
svg:x="0.468cm" svg:y="2.337cm">
                    <draw:object
draw:notify-on-update-of-ranges="Tabelle1.A7:Tabelle1.A7" xlink:href="*./Object
1*" xlink:type="simple" xlink:show="embed" xlink:actuate="onLoad">
                        <loext:p/>

I suggest testing its creation and viewing first with LibreOffice, perhaps
manipulating it a bit with a text editor (JEdit can open XML within a zip
with its Archive plugin and you may also save the XML change within the
ZIP! There is also some XML plugin for indent of the content.xml - but
beware it does not take care of ODF whitespace handling - no ODFDOM being
used within the plugin ;-)
