            Bug ID: 107929
           Summary: Calc: set "Prompt user" as default for "Recalculation
                    on file load"
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 4.0.0.3 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: medium
         Component: Calc
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org

>From LO 4.0 we have: "Menu/Tools/Options/LibreOffice calc/Formula -
Recalculation on file load" with default setting "Excel 2007 and newer" and
"ODF spreadsheet" to "Never recalculate". 
I suggest default setting be "Prompt user" for the following reasons: 
- I use it myself like that feeling that's logical
- it's informative about recalculation 
- it's not too complicated for average user because there's "Always perform
this/chosen without prompt in the future". 
- some bugs and confusions can be avoided like Bug 60718.

What I can be wrong about is that even without recalculation values should be
right, like Bug 81396 and in that case I wrongfully closed Bug 60718. But what
would be recalc do then? Help https://help.libreoffice.org/Calc/Recalculate is
not correct and useful. 

Note: I checked previous bugs but they are not the same, Bug 60964 was about
"Always recalculate" as default, Bug 60974 for per-spreadsheet so not accepted,
Bug 60973 that "Prompt user" not working was probably about those exceptions
that used to exist, such as Bug 97897.
