I personally prefer something relatively clean. While it is good to
know that empty cells are not included, considering that someone else
may have to use the worksheet is a very good consideration. In my case,
the sheet was constructed from a model provided by the Society of
Actuaries and built by a Financial Engineer who is also an actuary and
PHD. This was one of the tasks among a number of other tasks she was
working on, so giving me a clean spreadsheet was not going to happen.
Since this spreadsheet serves as both a product specification as well
as a model to code C++ code, I want to be able to clean it up a bit,
primarily correcting some errors, and being able to hand it over to
another Financial Engineer. 

That said, I am personally interested to learn new things about OO.o
calc both in terms of functionality, but also in terms of style.
