I confirm that the bug still exists in 3.5.4.2. In my case it rendered several documents basically unreadable: it is impossible to manually close hundreds of comments, and those comments in turn obscure the bulk of the spreadsheet. The mess is even worse than in Dirk Huizenga's example, alas confidential info so can't post it here.
