Dear Santa,

Here's a 'paper cut' that, if fixed, would make my life considerably easier.

When you open a csv file, it will determine the column width based on the
contents. If there is a lot of text in say the first column (say a couple
of hundred characters), that col will be very wide, often wider than my
screen, which is not so easy to work with.

The way I currently solve this:
- Select all by clicking left top corner of the spread sheet
- Right click on one of the column headers
- Select Column Width - Default value, so that all columns will take on the
default width.

Would be nice if instead, calc would just open csv files using the default
column width (I think ms excel does this), or maybe use a max column width
instead.
Post a bug report/feature request for this, it is a good idea for those of us who regularly import csv files into Calc.

Cheers,

Kees
