Problem/Motivation

I had to migrate content from a spreadsheet including basic formatting (bold and italic) for a project. I didn't have much time to build it to be contributed but I found a way in a couple hours. It would be nice if it was built-in.

I put my code in a gist so it can be used if someone needs it or has a bit more time than me to improve (I suppose bold and italic won't be enough) it and make a patch from it.

    This needs more work.

    1. We'll need documentation of the new option
    2. We may want to preserve more cell formatting other than just strong and em
    3. We'll need tests

    Also, the reason I got interested in this issue is because I wanted to preserve links in cell content, but I could not figure it out. :sigh: I suspect that might need work in the upstream PHP spreadsheet package.
