Not possible via --rowoffset plus --coloffset, and not possible
via the GUI either. But personally I don't think this is
worthwhile. It is difficult enough to parse spreadsheet files
without adding this extra complexity.

Ok, like I said, it was just a suggestion.

"In principle", gretl could save you a few clicks by offering to
import specific rows and/or columns, but the saving of a few
clicks would come at the cost of very substantial coding effort.

Sorry, but I didn't know this was a difficult task. I know you'd
spent a lot of time working in improvements that are really
important to Gretl. Thanks a lot for this!
 
Offer me lots of money and I _might_ be interested, otherwise I'm
afraid not ;-)

If one day I win the lottery (called "Mega Sena" here in Brazil) I
promisse I will help the creation of the Gretl Foundation! :D

Best,
