            Bug ID: 68048
          Assignee: [email protected]
           Summary: Autocorrect patterns are preferred over date
                    acceptance patterns.
          Severity: normal
    Classification: Unclassified
                OS: All
          Reporter: [email protected]
          Hardware: Other
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
           Version: 4.0.4.2 release
         Component: Spreadsheet
           Product: LibreOffice

It would be great if all valid "D/M" date patterns are accepted as dates. This
is not true for 1/2, 1/4, and 3/4 which seems to be handled by the
autocorrection stuff.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Make sure that "D/M" is listed in "Tools/Options/Language
Settings/Languages/Date acceptance patterns"
2. Try to enter the following dates:   1/1,  1/2, 1/3, 1/4, 1/5, 3/4

Result: 1/1, 1/3, 1/5 are interpreted as dates but 1/2, 1/3, and 3/4 are
replaced by the related autocorrect strings.

Expected Result: All the values should get interpreted as dates

Motivation: For normal users (my wife), it is quite surprising that only the
three variants 1/2,1/4, 3/4 are handled different way ;-) IMHO, dates are much
more used by Calc users than fractions.
