--- Comment #1 from V Stuart Foote <vstuart.foote at utsa.edu> ---
@Heiko, having trouble following what you are asking.

And the ASK question was answered in its duplicate: 
https://ask.libreoffice.org/en/question/191894/how-do-you-bracket-negatives-in-calc/

Is this for Calc? Seems like it, and if so the cell formatting is controllable
by Format Code pattern matching (for input and display) and can be adjusted
already for representing negative numbers.

If the question is to hold a number in a text string--i.e. bound within
brackets/parenthesis--it is no longer a number.  The correct entry for entering
a NAN parenthesis bracketed text string in Calc *is* '(15.43).

Other brackets are not parsed, so [15.43] or {15.43} are treated as NAN text
strings.

Not seeing an issue.
