I'm not sure why R1C1 notation would be referred to as "old" or "older".  If
anything, A1 notation is the legacy - a relic from the days of Lotus-1-2-3 and
Supercalc.

I have voted for issue 72191.  In a way that issue is slightly misleading as it
presents this as a compatibility issue with Excel, which it is not.  

This is about getting OOo to be taken seriously by power users, a significant
proportion of which actually use R1C1 (in Excel) because it makes sense even
though that program does a good job of hiding the feature away.  OOo can do
better at promoting the feature I'm sure.

It's not clear the dependency on 72191, some developer comment on this issue
would be interesting to follow.

Ok, rant over. ;) and thanks to all the developers for their hard work.
