--- Comment #5 from Wolfgang Jäger <[email protected]> ---
1. The described behaviour is as the 'Validity' always behaved.
2. Since there is no explicit specification (afaik) the behaviour as it always
was cannot be proved a bug.
3. To get what the reporter wants would not require a bugfix but an
ENHANCEMENT.
4. In fact more than one enhancemnt would be neded. At least:
4.1. Add an option concerning cell protection to an effect as described by
'Inhibit Full Paste'.
4.2. Add an option under 'Validity' to an effect like 'Check Pasted Content for
Validity'.
5. All this would not ensure actual data consistency. As soon as any contents
of a validity 'List' or a validity 'Cell Range' are changed, newly invalid
contents in cells may occur.
The 'Validity' tool as is is a makshift at best. In specific it may mislead
designers of spreadsheets to believe they can make things fool-proof based on
it. If this is needed urgently the task should be moved to a database
application with its security features and rights management.
Either NOTABUG or Importance = "enhancement".
(Discussion about workarounds may better be placed in ask.libreoffice.org or on
any forum on open OfficeSoftware.)
