In Excel, when a text field is too large for the cell, the text is right
aligned, and the cell to the *left* is empty, the text will oveflow into that
cell to the left.   (This is in contrast to both OO and Excel which overflow
into the cell to the right when the text is left aligned.)   OO overflows to the
right in both cases. 

Perhaps this is a feature, or desired behavior for OO.  However, it prevents me
from importing a number of Excel spreadsheets that otherwise would be readable
under OO.

I'd like to see the Excel like behavior either made the default, or put under
the control of a user preference.   Thanks!
