For documents that require a longer process, I prefer formats that I can use comments and TODO in, with a text editor that feels familiar.

Other than that, I strongly agree. Word is also de facto standard when you want others to open and edit your document.

Word has comments. They work well as todo markers if they don't need to be retained (just make a comment to mark something and then delete it when it is resolved).
