--- Comment #7 from Heiko Tietze <heiko.tietze at documentfoundation.org> ---
We discussed the topic in the design meeting.

Whether you enter a range or a cell address, the target is always filled with
the source. The function will not limit the results like SORT(A1:A5) and
cut-off at two items. Changing this behavior might be convenient in a few
scenarios but would be unexpected and error-prone in most other.

As for the UI we may change the dialog and add a reference (aka "shrink")
button to the field that would accept only single cells. Labels should help to
make the UI clear. Could be: 

"Start cell: [     ] <shink> from: <range>"

If this sequence takes too much space, we could go with just "At" or use labels
more sparingly or place controls in two lines.
