is how a user was confused that using the "Number of First Row" CSV filter
token for export doesn't work.
As Eike mentioned there, "the help text says “Row number to start reading” this
is for importing CSV" - but there's an alternative reading of "start reading"
as "read the spreadsheet when exporting". So having a uniform "CSV Import"
marker, like those used starting from token 7, would be very clear. (I suppose
that these markers deserve a separate column, so that token names are separate
from import/export specifiers.)
