This got me thinking what would it take to build a decent collaborative editor that would work for hundreds of people.

It's more likely that a real time editor for spreadsheets just doesn't make sense for more than a few people.

The low hanging fruit would be adding a read-only view of a static copy, because that's what people actually needed.
