Title:
  Office does not try to detect character set of CSV

Status in LibreOffice Productivity Suite:
  Confirmed
Status in The OpenOffice.org Suite:
  New
Status in “libreoffice” package in Ubuntu:

Status in “openoffice.org” package in Ubuntu:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: openoffice.org

  When importing a CSV file in OOo Calc, the Lucid version of OOo does
  not recognize the correct character set. The CSV import module just
  seems to default to the last character set used.

  When doing this with the OOo from 8.04LTS, or with the official
  version from Openoffice.org, autodetection does it's job.

  How to reproduce:
  1) make one or two CSV files, for example:
  echo '"text","test","vest","vast"' > /tmp/1.csv
  echo '"text","test","vest","vast"' > /tmp/2.csv
  2) open it with OpenOffice.org:
  openoffice.org /tmp/1.csv
  Choose "unicode" for import. (This is wrong, but please do this anyway).
  The result shows various non-Latin characters, which is expected as we chose the wrong import character set.
  Now close the file and reopen any other file (or, for that matter, the same file):
  openoffice.org /tmp/2.csv
  Now Unicode is the default import type. There simply seems to be no autodetection.
