If the destination cells are already formatted as text, you claim that the
Import Text dialog options should have priority over the format the cells
already have. But other user might claim exactly the opposite: hey, I have
carefully formatted my cells in one way and the Import dialog has changed that,
simply because of some minor detail.

Although I have not tested the procedure reported in comment 5, I don't really
see a problem in practice. You are in control of which cells (or columns) in
your spreadsheet will be the destination of the imported data, so you can have
the cells formatted as General/Standard and then successfully import your data
according to relevant options in the Import Text dialog. Am I missing
something?
