I'm very sorry, but (of course) I'm not able to read anyone's mind
why she/he needs this feature in an application.
What I try to build with it is certainly an exotic application for
a limited number of users.

But nobody knows how many other users (private & commercial) have
been faced with this problem making their work harder or they saw, 
that it's impossible to hit the aim (of her/himself or her/his boss ...)
... and didn't report the bug or found another (much more labour-intensive) 
solution.

I can see this feature in many applications, where sheetbuilder
care about flexibility and on-the-fly error-workaround without the
need to handover the actual work to a helpdesk for hours,days or weeks.
In most times, commercial users need a solution, or at least a workaround
for their specific problem a.s.a.p. (own experiences at work).

If this is not enough to push the priority to a level, where the waiting
time for a fix drops under a year, we all have to live with that.
I'm aware that hundreds of other issues may be more important than this
in the subjective view of their reporters.

The only thing I know is, that this bug is known for years now. 
(early OO times)
Discussions about that can be found asking uncle google ...

If you think I'm some impolite, I'm very sorry but my english is not
the best and I personally have the view of a slightly disappointed user.
