lame I know, but as far as I can see ( and that's just with very
limited experience playing with this feature ) excel ( the one and
only version I checked ) seems to just insert 0..n characters as
needed to fill the available width. As far as I could see with some
quick testing left/right/center justification didn't seem to affect
the output when the repeat character was present in the format ( is
that what you mean by the adjustment you mention ? )
Probably my bad wording..
no, just my simple mind

Do we need to cover what might happen in a word table ? ( for me I
would prefer to steer away from that if possible as I don't know
what is reasonable behaviour there )
Same for me. I'm not aware of such a feature in Word, which doesn't mean
anything of course. So maybe just restrict that in the proposal with
some wording such as "for spreadsheet cells, ..."
I think that might be wise :-)

Also do we need to specify the
behaviour with multiple occurrences of the 'number:fill-character'
attributes? we did mention that in a previous discussion ( i am of
course ok with vague to none ;-) )
I thought I had covered that but I didn't ...

So, Thorsten, please in the proposal to the section with

"
[and list the<number:fill-character>  element as a child element of each
of those]
"
add
"
[for each of those elements add wording that the element can occur only
once, for example]
This element can contain one instance of each of the following elements:
[and add<number:fill-character>]
"

is there a need to specify some tolerance ? e.g. Excel seems to accept the presence of multiple repeat character code(s) but only ( again in the one and only version I tested ) actually use the last one.

And, again that's for this!!!
