Wkbk/environment Preferences?

["David J. Braden" <dbraden rochester rr com>]

Are there any plans to work user-defined preferences to the project? 
E.g., how calculations are handled (automatic or manual), convention 
used for Dates, other stuff one sees in commercial packages.
Where can I find out about the direction of the project, 
development-wise?
Oh, kudos to the folks who implemented stdev, var, binomdist, and 
similar functions: they go far in fixing things within Excel that are 
still buggy, after all these years. (sheesh, sounds like a song...)
TIA
