--- Comment #1 from Mike Kaganski <mikekaganski at hotmail.com> ---
Calc does *not* filter the entry based on cell format string. When your input
data does not match any numeric format, it is simply considered a text. This is
the correct behavior, and should not change.

To filter input, there is a dedicated "validity" function [1], and you may set
your cells values to match some criteria, like being between some date range
(which would make sure that the input was numeric).

Closing NOTABUG.
