<pre>Steps to reproduce:
- Create some delimited file with multi-character delimiters, e.g.
col1||col2||col3
a||b||c
- Open said file with LO Calc.
- In the text import dialog, select "Separated by", check "Other" and write
"||" in there as separator.
- Click OK and check the file inside Calc.
Expected behavior: should separate columns every time there's two bars (||).
Actual behavior: separates columns every *single* bar, thus creating empty
columns (can be fixed by checking "Merge delimiters", even though it's only one
delimiter).</pre>
