            Bug ID: 114997
           Summary: No visual indication as to where Linked External Data
                    was imported
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 5.4.4.2 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Calc
          Assignee: [email protected]
          Reporter: [email protected]

Description:
Once the user manages to Link External Data (a non-trivial task, see bug
114994, bug 114995, bug 114996, and finally bug 100993), there is no way to
tell what ranges of the sheet have imported data.

This means the user can inadvertently edit data in a cell that's part of an
imported range, and their data will be lost when the link is updated.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Sheet -> Link to External Data
2. Paste the URL of an HTML file with table(s)
3. Import the data

Actual Results:  
Externally-linked data looks just like verbatim data in the sheet.

Expected Results:
There should be a visual indication around the imported data, to highlight that
it is subject to change.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No
