One of the biggest fallacies that I find with OpenOffice Calc is that when you
type 7/8 in an empty cell it interprets it as 07/08/09 and there is no way to
disable this.

The work around is: Format Cells->Text, then retype the entered entity. It seams
to me that this is an annoyance in the way that most likely the user will want
to type a string and not a date (for example 07/04 could mean day/month,
month/year, fraction, two different choices (as in min/max)).

Currently there is no option to disable this unwanted behavior or to modify it.
It will be much appreciated if such an option is provided somewhere.
