            Bug ID: 85264
           Summary: RFE: computed conditional formatting
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 4.3.2.2 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: medium
         Component: Spreadsheet
          Assignee: [email protected]

Request the ability to apply the format returned by a formula.  This is in
essence like the STYLE() function, except applied via conditional formatting
rather than by explicit use of STYLE().

Use case: applying a style to manually entered data.  For example, a formula
that returns a named style based on the year of an entered date (perhaps by
means of LOOKUP()) would have the style applied by conditional formatting to
the entered cell.

The date method of conditional formatting is not appropriate for this case; the
basic conditional formatting could be used, but only up to 10 years (or other
ranges).  It's also less flexible, because the formula to be used for the
computed conditional format could actually be a name; editing the value of the
name changes the formula, which would allow the computed style to be changed
easily everywhere.
