As end user I would expect the cell being copied _as is_ since I have no visual
clue what formatting is used to achieve the current style.

When I copy the text I would expect to may only copy the text and it's style
(this would be DF I guess).
When I mark *the entire cell* I would expect writer to copy the entire cell as
is with all it's formatting. As a long time Calc user I would expect in writer
tables about the same behaviour for basic operations (eg copy&paste) as in
calc.

In writer text colour as well text (not cell) background is also copied.

My usecase: I have a table with tasks to complete. Every task has a column
where I enter a checkmark and make the background green when it's finished.
Right now it's a two step process: 1) copy entire cell with the checkmark; 2)
manually set the cell colour.
