--- Comment #12 from Eike Rathke <[email protected]> ---
I think we could accept U+2212 − MINUS SIGN for _number input_ in the number
scanner, but not preserve it. One would have to apply a number format like
General;"−"General
if that is wanted.

I'm reluctant to support it in formula expressions as well, but so far don't
see a compelling reason to not do it (for pasted numbers for example); again,
of course not preserving the character.

I'd refrain from adding it to the dreaded lazy data typist mode that can start
formulas with + or - characters instead of =, that is already confusing enough.
Anything showing up with
git grep \'-\' sc
probably should not be touched at all.

Btw, I do not see that such pasted string would result in right-justified cell
content as mentioned in comment 0. For me it's left-justified.
