Can you please tell upstream that the following is absolutely bananas. Thanks.
Just show as much as you can. The user will notice it is cut
off. Imagine web pages where if something doesn't fit the browser, it
becomes all ##### ! What if lines that went off the end of the Linux
console all became totally ####? What were talking about here is a
basic violation of computing standards.

If the content of the cell is too large for the size of the cell, the
entry may span over the edge of the cell into the empty cells to the
right. If the cell is a number, the cell grid area may display hash
marks (######) to indicate the cell has content which is too large to
display in the given cell width.

A cell may display a series of hash marks (######). This indicates
that the result is too wide to display in the cell given the current
font setting and the current column width. When this occurs, the value
in the cell can be seen in two ways. If the cell is selected, the
value will appear in the data entry area (to the right of the equals
button directly above the cell grid). Alternatively, the column
containing the cell can be widened until the data contents become
visible.
