            Bug ID: 85807
           Summary: Remove merged cell restriction on sorting
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 4.3.2.2 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: medium
         Component: Spreadsheet
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: than...@earthlink.net

Sample document.

Simple sample attached.

Select A1:B3, then attempt to sort by column A descending.  If you have the
"Include formats" sort option selected, you get the message "Ranges containing
merged cells can only be sorted without formats."

If you uncheck "Include formats" in the search options, the sort completes, but
the bold status of A3 stays in A3 instead of following the value to A1 as it
should in any sane sorting scenario.

There is no logical reason for sorting with formats to not work simply because
there are some merged cells involved.  If there are some arcane edge cases that
cause bad results, then simply throw up an (optional) warning to that effect. 
Don't block the sort.
