Thanks for the commit Eike, I'm really proud and grateful !

:-)

Main change is that the "Save cell content as shown" option is
independent of the "Save formulas" option and should not be disabled
when checking that.

I disagree, and I will try to explain myself :
When you export a cell with =DATE(1981;9;20) by values, you have :
1) 20/09/81 when "Save cell content as shown" is set
2) 29849  when "Save cell content as shown" is not set
When you export the same cell by formulas, you always have
=DATE(1981;9;20), regardless the "Save cell content as shown" option.
As this option is no more relevant in this context , for a good user
experience, she should be disabled, this is an information for the
user.

That behavior is only with formula cells though. Value cells without
formulas are still affected by the option; without being checked the raw
value is exported, when checked the value is exported as displayed by
the number format applied. If you have a good idea how that could be
clarified for the user I'd welcome your patch :-)  Maybe just some
rewording of the option is needed?
