--- Comment #47 from Andy <[email protected]> ---
Please let me for once add a comment which is "political" rather than
"technical": to me, the difficulties caused by bugs such as this are not only
due to my own production work with LO. If it were just for this (which is of
course important) any workaround, even a difficult to implement one, would do.

The problem is that I am a teacher and use LO in lectures continuously, and do
this both because it a free software and to spread its usage and appreciation.

So how can I go in class to teach statistics and tell students that the app is
so buggy that you cannot write math formulas anymore, or that you must apply
arcane procedures to be able to do that again, or that you must change locale?

So I agree, to ME personally, locale is quite unimportant, but for the context
where I use LO with the public, switching locale to a foreign one is simply
unthinkable, unless you do not care making LO the object of blatant complaints,
people not wanting to use it, etc.

Unfortunately this is at present the case also with another bug, n. 83461,
related to a significant bug in the "frequency" function, something that I use
everyday in class. If you have a look at it and would like to express interest,
it would be nice. 
Thanks for your attention,
