             Bug #: 51071
           Summary: FILESAVE: CSV should be an export, not a save-as
                    target
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: LibO 3.5.3 release
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
 Status Whiteboard: BSA
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Spreadsheet
        AssignedTo: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org
        ReportedBy: jendrikse...@web.de


Problem description: 

As soon as there is more than 1 table in the spreadsheet, the CSV save-as
target becomes very error-prone.   

Steps to reproduce:
1. Create new spreadsheet test.ods
2. Create a table table1 with content A1=ABC
3. Create another table table2 with content A1=123
4. Open table2
5. Save as test.csv
6. Warning is shown that only the current table *was* saved

Current behavior: Only the currently opened table is saved, whenever "Save" is
chosen.

Expected behavior: There should be an error message on each save, saying that
only the current table was saved. Better would be to prevent the "save as csv"
option altogether and add an "export to csv" option.
The current implementation makes losing data very easy, because users might
expect all tables to be saved.
