Fine by me if you think it reaches the same goal.

UX input done on bug 89781. Essentially the idea is to solve bug 135762 and
have any kind of query before saving the document. I suggest to resolve this
ticket as INVALID.

I would split the document model with multiple sheet capability from the file
storage. Similarly we do not warn in Draw at every action that saving as raster
graphic breaks the vectoring. Regarding bug 89781 I see no blocker to save
sheets with data in multiple CSVs like _sheet1.csv,
_sheet2.csv, etc.

RFE, so through UX...

Something to be said for forcing a filter imported (i.e. *opened*) CSV (or
other delimited data file) immediately into OpenDocument Format spreadsheet
(.ODS) identification. Renaming as needed and releasing the source data file.  

No accidental Save data loss. And CSV then *explicitly* an external format and
an export action. That would protect against underwarnning of data loss.

Otherwise the current warning is sufficient, and users need to be reminded that
CSV is not an ODF format.  And this => WF

There is no "current file type"! A spreadsheet or delimited data source opened
into LibreOffice Calc has been converted as needed for use with all features of
an OpenDocument Spreadsheet.

CSV or any other delimited data format is external export. 

An actual objection might be that LibreOffice holds lock on the source data
file, and points save/export back to that on save. Rather than immediately
releasing the lock and naming the ODF SpreadSheet with the source name (with
.ods file type extension if os requires). Require an explicit export action to
actually write the external CSV (or other delimiter) data file.

Agree => NAB

CALC - feature request - adding sheets to csv file

Steps:

1) I open the file
2) It shows the import windows
3) I add two new sheets that you won't be able to save at all as the csv file
is not compatible with them

Other than the import window in 2 there is no real warning that a csv file is
different.

My suggestion was about adding a warning at step 3. Something like a short
pop-up saying that this won't be supported in CSV files.

IMHO the general warning box when you save your file in a non odf format is not
specific enough.
Furthermore if you open the csv file and add a new sheet and save the file
while while you view the second sheet, the information from the second sheet is
basically erased from your hard drive without you getting any note other than
the default _it potentially could miss a few features_.

Additional thought: Maybe adding a new table should be blocked if the file type
you work in is a csv file (it may is something else under the hood, but in the
window bar the file still is a csv file and if you save it and ignore the
window it basically behaves exactly like every other file).

Technically speaking it's true that you see the import windows if you open a
csv file.

However, it's not really clear from the user perspective once the csv file is
opened. Once the information is imported, there is real indication that
additional sheets are not compatible with the current file type.

Yes, you get the warning-message when you try to save in a non odf format. Yet
this error message is the exact same as with the MS office file types making it
only a general disclaimer that just says that some features _may do not work_ -
it's not said that they clearly don't.

The difference between _might not work_ and _will definitely not work_ is the
line between the general disclaimer for non odf files and a file type that does
not even support certain basic functionality.

LO triggers already a warning-message if $USER try export to non-native
odf-formats (aslong $USER doesn't explicitly switch off thus messages )
