            Bug ID: 124207
        Issue Type: DEFECT
           Summary: Table Converts Percent number to an imprecise proxy
           Product: Writer
           Version: 4.0.0
          Hardware: PC
                OS: Windows 7
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P3

Steps:
Make a table in OpenOffice.
Add an integer number followed by a percent.
(For example, 43%)

Observe:
Openoffice converts the number to 
43.00%

This is highly undesirable behavior.  People often use an approximate (or
rounded) percentage and do not intend significant digits beyond the rounding. 
Therefore, in each such case (literally 99% of the time) OpenOffice is forcing
their table data to be wrong.
