<pre>Thanks Heiko for looking into this enhancement request.
I am aware of the use of complicated functions that lead to "almost" the same
results. However, what I point to is the automatic filling based on
neighbouring cell content without using any function. An enhancement with
substantially better user experience.
I suggest you to look at the video "Flash Fill" which you find in the web link
of the bug report. This illustrates quite nicely the type of enhancement which
I request.
In my job, I use LibreOffice Calc and Excel 2013 everyday, for many different
use cases. Working with data (numeric or text) the Flash Fill feature of Excel
extraordinarily increases productivity. I request a similar enhancement to
LibreOffice.</pre>
