The problem is that both Writer and Calc accept .txt, according to the 
selections in the File | Open menu, but there is apparently no way to prevent 
the .txt from going to Writer from File | Open even if the Spreadsheets list of 
extensions has been selected.

That does seem like a bug.  Not major if the Insert | Sheet from file ... 
dialog solves the problem, but most people would not think to look there.

PS: Andrew, did you choose the Spreadsheets case in File | Open ... before 
picking a .txt file?

I might be mistaken, but in LibO/OOo importing (opening from non-ODF) is
done with File->Open, so the lack of that (Import) menu entry is not
such a big issue.
