Ubuntu 14.04 x64
LibreOffice 4.3.0.2 rc

Confirmed:
New
Normal - can prevent high quality work
High - regression (works fine in 4.1.4)
Comment 2 Markus Mohrhard 2014-07-19 12:57:35 UTC
Related to the spell checker. This does not happen if the cell does not contain a spelling error or if the spell checker is disabled.
