<pre>Description:
When one localc process does a paste to another, the wrong target area
is sometimes used.
This simulates what would happen if pasting from a non-localc spreadsheet
to localc.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start two localc processes. That likely involves running on a different
machine not sharing home directory or setting HOME=/tmp/me
NOTE: if the second process exits immediately, only one process is running.
2. Enter 11,21,12,22 into C7:C8. (I.e., a 2x2 area.)
3. Select B6:D9 (I.e., a 3x3 area.)
4. Copy
5. Switch to other localc
6. Select A5.
7. Paste
Actual Results:
A 2x2 data area is pasted into A5:B6. Ie., the data gets shifted up one
row and one column to the left. With expressions in the source area it
is possible to get them corrupted.
Expected Results:
A 3x3 data area is pasted into A5:C7
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: No
Additional Info:
This does not happen when doing the cut-and-paste all in one process.
The mini-ods file created and sent via the clipboard simply does not seem
to have any information about the source area. It would appear that the
bounding box of the non-empty cells is being used as a proxy.
It is possible that the correct area could be deduces from settings.xml
