--- Comment #15 from Heiko Tietze <heiko.tietze at documentfoundation.org> ---
We discussed the topic in the design meeting.

The topic is very difficult to understand and probably needs more
investigation. More general ideas: external sources are values and should not
affect the internal formatting. On the other hand, if the source has formatting
it should be used, ideally optionally. The question remains what "no
formatting" means both internally and externally, in other words we don't know
if a plain cell has explicitly no format and must or must not be overwritten.

Ultimately it sounds correct to follow Stephane's suggestion in comment 10 and
harmonize the functions.
