--- Comment #5 from Eike Rathke <erack at redhat.com> ---
Saving empty cells in CSV as unquoted empty fields is correct. Though saving
them quoted (with no further content) is equally correct. A software relying on
empty fields being quoted is broken. See http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4180 and
maybe http://www.creativyst.com/Doc/Articles/CSV/CSV01.htm

Btw, the options dialog does not offer to "quote all cell values", but "Quote
all text cells". Which empty cells are not.
