Something like that might fit better, indeed. I'd suggest to name it
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Calc/To-Dos/Usability
instead though. Please check with Frank (mailto URI at the bottom of
that page) of the UX team whether they have something different in mind.

Please note for i79924 that changes like strong typing would affect the
ODF file format and especially the ODFF formula specification as well.
It would had to be supported not only by OOo but also by other
applications reading/writing ODF spreadsheet files.

For i80139 please note that for "3.2 DATA LINKS" external references are
already implemented (could be enhanced though to not create an internal
sheet and handle things a bit different), "3.3 TRACK CHANGES" is already
implemented (see menu Edit.Changes), and "3.4 VERSIONING" is already
implemented (see file save/load dialog). Which leaves only "3.1
COLLABORATIONS" that is already handled by some other issue.
