Link to External Data is badly broken

Does Sheet -> Link to External Data even work in Cal 5.4.2.2?

Try https://people.sc.fsu.edu/~jburkardt/data/csv/addresses.csv

There are a number of annoying usability issues with that dialog. Let me know
if I need to create separate issue, but the bottom line is that it's impossible
to use:

1. After you enter the URL, there's no button to do anything with it. "Browse"
doesn't load data from the URL, it opens the file system open dialog. The user
needs to think to press Enter. I didn't think of that in the beginning and
stared blankly at the dialog.

2. After you press Enter, the Text Import dialog appears. For a CSV file, you
can just press OK with the example I linked above. But then nothing happens.
OK, now what? I had to look up the help, which I really really should not need
for such a simple operation. The help says I need to select a range. Fine.

3. After selecting two columns and pressing OK, the "Available Table/Ranges" is
still blank.

Link to External Data is completely broken. Is there a test suite for this
function?
