I imagine there's a big group of people who would agree with me, that it's counter-intuitive, that it's not the way Excel works, whatever, and should be changed.
There may be just as large a group that have their reasons for making it the way it is, I don't know.
I'm just wondering, does it get put to a vote somewhere? Or is there a Linus Torvalds type guy at the top who these questions filter up to who then makes a decision? Or what?
Not that it's a huge issue for me or anything.
Thanks,

This is actually the expected behaviour of both 2.0 and all previous versions of
OOo. The text-to-table conversion sees paragraph breaks, not line breaks, as
row delimiters. As this isn't a defect, I am closing the issue.
If you have large amounts of text ending in line-breaks which you wish to
convert to a table, I'd suggest using Find & Replace to change the line-breaks
to paragraph breaks.
