Actual data (instead of guessing) is a good thing methinks.  At least it'll give us something specific to discuss.

The ^ operator used to be right-associative in KSpread, but then, as a
follow-up to the earlier discussions, I have changed it to be
left-associative. Thus, at least some applications are already
affected by what was discussed earlier.
