Hello Eike,

Thank you for your comments, which I agree with.  (Although Excel and
ONLYOFFICE solve this differently) I think the current implementation in
LibreOffice makes sense. I will therefore close this issue.

I will change the issue's summary for the remaining request:

> input is 0 or 1 then preserve the Boolean format, else for any other value 
> remove the format as it is currently done. If that wouldn't confuse people..
