OK, I'm starting to get mildly annoyed now. We have identified one
failure case connected with multiline fields. Even in the multiline
case, I expect that the embedded newlines will usually match those of
the CSV file, in which case there will be no failure. It's a very big
step from there to the far more general "can't load data exported from
Excel". Or did you have some other limitation in mind?
FWIW, I don't make a habit of using multiline fields in my spreadsheets
- and some users I have spoken to aren't even aware that you can have
them at all.
