--- Comment #19 from Nathan Shearer <documentfoundation at nathanshearer.ca> ---
I must have chosen Writer by mistake when I opened the bug. I encountered it in
Calc when I tried to make a spreadsheet that divided a page into exactly 8
columns.

I have to disagree on the argument that rounding values and therefore changing
the users explicit input is preferable because it can help reduce UI clutter.
The UI does not need to change at all since the text fields will scroll as they
do right now.

Imagine if a Bank suggested that they should round your balance because it
reduces clutter. I'm sure they would always round down too ;)
