yes, this works - it's not the cell location that gets corrupt - it's the cell
contents

This looks interesting but I can't figure out what you mean. WinRAR won't
recognize the .ODS file as something that can be unzipped, xmlbeautifier.com
also doesn't recognize it. The .ODS opened in Notepad.exe but the results
didn't look promising. I tried "save as" within Calc to save as .XML and it
returned "the file could not be written". 

But since you can see the internal xml or whatever it is, doesn't that prove
that this is a bug that needs to be fixed, rather than "unconfirmed". It
doesn't really matter how the cell got the way it is - should Calc be
programmed such that it will repair whatever is going on in the XML part of the
ODS so the user's commands will be obeyed? (Obviously I'm not an engineer, but
common sense says that the user selects something, then chooses a command - if
it doesn't work, it's a bug, right?)
