"Centre Across Selection" is an option of the horizontal text alignment (not
the vertical!). Cells become not merged but the text "virtually" placed as if.

The exported ods document cannot provide the option, and MSO just keeps the
text left-aligned. When opening the xlsx document we merge the cells.

This obviously need changes to the file format, if accepted by the committee.
Personally I struggle with the use case. Why not merge? "Visual approximations"
and "can be cumbersome for frequent use" can't be the reason why Microsoft
added this option (rather to make MSO not comply with the open standard *g*).
