Over a year since a patch was produced, and this still hasn't been fixed?  I run
into this bug daily, since I started using OO.  The "other" sheet doesn't have
this problem, since I'm very used to copy and paste merged cells.

I suppose you could say I make horrible spreadsheets, but I commonly use small
blocks and merge cells to make larger blocks.  So pretty much every sheet I
have, I see this error whenever I try to copy a cell.  I must first select the
exact number of cells in the target area, then cut the target area, then select
the source area, then copy, then select the top left cell and paste.  This is a
serious drain on workflow, and when I forget to follow the procedure, it is also
a waste of time to start all over.

One question I have about the proposed patch.  If you drag the cells to make
duplicates, does it handle making the duplicates merged cells as well?  Meaning
if I have A1:A2 merged, and I grab the lower right corner of A2 and drag it down
3 cells, do I end up with the only expected behaviour?  Do I end up with B1:B2,
C1:C2, and D1:D2 merged and copies of the formula from A1:A2 present?
