            Bug ID: 141870
           Summary: Fractional formatting: Sequence of preferred
                    denominators (Base 2 mainly); also Writer TextFields
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: medium
         Component: Calc
          Assignee: [email protected]

Fractional formatting sometimes is expected to be restricted to a sequence of
preferred denominators. The most frequent such sequence should be 2,4, 8, 16,
32 - or more generally the powers of 2.  

If it can be done without breaking the concept, a code for fractional
formatting like # ?/[2^5] (5 denoting the maximum exponent; if omitted 14 e.g.)
or (to give a funny example) ?/[3;7;11] should be established.  
Implementation should choose the smallest denominator usable without loss of
accuracy.  

For export to an alien file format the sequence can be replaced then by the
highest (realistic) deniminator matching it, or to the respective number of
decimal digits in the denominator.
