Title:
  Calc: Default Formatting ruins dates

Status in LibreOffice Productivity Suite:
  Incomplete
Status in The OpenOffice.org Suite:
  Invalid
Status in “libreoffice” package in Ubuntu:
  New
Status in “openoffice.org” package in Ubuntu:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: openoffice.org-calc

  When a date is entered into a Calc cell and then Default Formatting is
  selected, the date turns into an integer. For example, entering
  "2008-7-7" and then selecting Default Formating causes the cell to
  display "39636".

  It would be nice if Calc just showed the data as it was entered. If
  the user enters "03102008" and Calc reformats it to "2008-10-03", then
  the user clicks Default Formating, then Calc should show "03102008"
  and not "39874".
