--- Comment #4 from Eike Rathke <erack at redhat.com> ---
I just came across this old one. Turning off tracking *has* to discard all
previous tracking because while tracking is not active all position
dependencies can be invalidated without the tracking ever knowing it. For
example inserting/deleting columns or rows would invalidate all tracked changes
that would be affected by that action without being able to add a track record,
switching on tracking again later would let the old tracked actions point to
wrong or invalid cell positions in the sheet or wrong cell content if content
was changed. So, either you track changes or you don't, there's no half way
between. This is also not a data loss bug because the confirmation dialog
clearly indicates that "any information about changes will be lost".

Closing as wontfix.
