Re: [libreoffice-users] [Feature Request] Calc cell format for bytes

Hi,
according to me this should not be a formatting feature but some 
extension for very narrow users constituency.
Otherwise why not to recognize 'b' as 'baud' and 'KB' as Kommerce Bank 
and many other unit types used in various professions?
:)

Regards,
Jiri
