I have taken more time to try to explain what I mean. Please show me the respect
to read this carefully.
1) I don't understand which rule about reporting bugs I have not followed.
Sorry. I not being annoying. I'm trying to be helpful. I'm a user trying to make
the software better. I really don't know what's wrong with my bug report. I've
clearly reported one and only one issue which is reproducible.
The only possible mistake I made is that I have reported a "wishlist" bug.
Perhaps rather than making it invalid, you could make it issue type
"Enhancement"
I think this is a bug because ...
2) The import transforms a date type to a text type. I can't see how that is
correct behaviour.
3) Going the other way, from base to calc, works. So it's not consistent.
4) During the paste data wizard, there is an "auto recognise" data type option.
You tell it how many lines of data to scan, and I supposed it would then make a
good guess about data type. Isn't it normal to expect this to recognise dates as
dates? Competing office software suites offer the same functionality, and this
is why I expected date recognition.
If it doesn't do that, what is 'recognition' doing?
5) I know that you can set a data type manually. That's a workaround for this
bug, in my opinion.
