Sample DOCX

Open the attached DOCX with a single table having a few cell values set, and a
calculated cell. This works in a limited way in Word, see [1].

Word doesn't have number formats in tables, however has no problem interpreting
numbers as such.
=> Writer imports them as text.

Word has a limited way of handling formula, they're special fields.
=> Writer shows a sort-of-field with 0 in it, but it doesn't behave like a
regular field, and can't be updated.

Not sure how to best handle these in Writer, it'd be great to import numbers as
such, and possibly convert formula to and from Writer formula (with
limitations).
