Default Merge =( formula should retain fraction type numbers after merge.

When doing a merge of text (or numbers) (such as a street number cells with
street name cells) the fraction-format numbers are reduced to decimal
numbers. It would be very helpful if number formats could be retained after
a merge, and/or fraction type numbers be allowed to be paste-special as text
and therefore retained after a merge in fraction format. We deal with pole
mounted electrical service addresses that all end in a 1/2. The current
limitation prevents address sorting and we hope this feature can be added
soon.
