--- Comment #1 from J. B. Rainsberger <me at jbrains.ca> ---
I would like to clarify this more, since someone has already seemed confused by
what I'm asking for.

My CSV file contains "10/23/2019". In the Import from CSV dialog, I mark that
column as "Date (MDY)". Calc imports the column correctly.

I would like Calc to apply my desired format to that column automatically,
rather than assuming that it should be the locale setting (or however it makes
that decision now).

It might be that this behavior has nothing to do with importing from CSV. I
could not find any other way to say to Calc, "Use date format YYYY-MM-DD by
default for new date values, including ones imported from CSV." I'm looking for
_that_.
