When exporting from Calc to a .csv file with a column type that has mixed data
types (i.e. some rows are alphanumeric and some are strictly numeric), only rows
that are alphanumeric are enclosed by quotes. Rows that are only numeric are not
enclosed in quotes, even when the format for the entire column is set to text.
This is causing inconsistencies in the behaviour of other programs that are
importing this data and that is what brought it to my attention. I tested on
WinXP and FC4 with OOo 2.0.

Example:

Col1, Col2, Col3
1234, 12A1, abcd
1235, 12B2, efgh
1246, 0691, hxyh

CSV output will look like this:
1234,"12A1","abcd"
1235,"12B2","efgh"
1246,0691,"hxyh"
