        <pre>Q&A thread: <a href="https://ask.libreoffice.org/en/question/233184/">https://ask.libreoffice.org/en/question/233184/</a> 
In pursuit of the mentioned thread I first noticed that the Validity feature
got the new Allow:>Custom>Formula variant.  

I tested it (though I judge it to be completely useless; 'Cell range' option
always allowed to enter a formula, and this is sufficiently made clear there)
and found with version 6.2.5.2 and with 6.4.2.1 as well that the new feature
doesnt't work as requested and expected:

The formula entered under >Custom>Formula is passed to the respective control
under the 'Cell range' path, but isn't put in force as long as it not got at
least a fake edit.

(The feature also is not mentioned in the online helöp for 6.4)

My suggsetion: Make sure that formulas entered in 'Cell range' mode are treated
properly by the Excel filters when importing/exporting, and remove it from Calc
again OR cancel the redundancy concerning 'Cell range'. First alternative
clearly preferred.</pre>
