As of the latest Lubuntu:

scott at scott-ASUS-M2N68-AMPLUS:~$ uname -a
Linux scott-ASUS-M2N68-AMPLUS 4.10.0-20-generic #22-Ubuntu SMP Thu Apr 20
09:22:42 UTC 2017 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
scott at scott-ASUS-M2N68-AMPLUS:~$ lsb_release -dsc
Ubuntu 17.04
zesty
scott at scott-ASUS-M2N68-AMPLUS:~$ echo $DESKTOP_SESSION
Lubuntu


and the latest LOWriter available in my repositories:

Version: 5.3.1.2
Build ID: 1:5.3.1-0ubuntu2
CPU Threads: 2; OS Version: Linux 4.10; UI Render: default; VCL: gtk2; Layout
Engine: new; 
Locale: en-US (en_US.UTF-8); Calc: group

the bug is still just as reported:

Go to end of 3rd column of page 48: (click beyond/below text)

"<Enter>" - text in column 3 jumps down a line
"<Enter>" - text in column 3 jumps back up a line
"<Enter>" - -should- go to first char of next page (49), -but-
            goes to first char about halfway down next page ( ~line 13? )
            Attempting to click on page 39 between last position of page 48 and
            this new false position - fails.
<backspace> or
<cursor-up>-cursor goes back to first char of last line of page 48

No change.

---------------------------------------
2 possibilities that I see:

1) bug has NOT yet been fixed
2) bug HAS been fixed, such that in FUTURE documents, doing what I did to
end up at the point where I had the bug would no longer result in the bug, BUT
the .odt file created by the bug still exhibits the same behaviour, having been
corrupted by the bug.  The file being corrupt, no version of LOW would ever NOT
exhibit the bug.

I don't know how to distinguish between the two possibilities...

As I said, I got around the problem by making two copies of the file (134
pages), deleting the uncompleted pages of the first copy (47 pages), and the
completed pages from the second (87 pages), and have been (very slowly!)
working on the second copy to try to complete the work.  I am now on page 75 of
its 87 pages, and so far have not encountered the bug - but neither copy is 134
pages, either... who knows at what page LOW "loses its mind"...(assuming it is
somehow page-related?)
