--- Comment #7 from Eike Rathke <[email protected]> ---
This is not funky behavior, the SUM function as many other functions that take
range parameters for numeric calculations processes range arguments as number
sequences, ignoring all text values. This is also defined in OpenFormula (ODFF)
and also what Excel does.

The result of A1+A2 actually depends on the setting of "Conversion from text to
numbers", under Tools->Options->Calc->Formulas "Detailed Calculation Settings",
choose Custom, Details. I recommend the "Generate #VALUE! error" setting so all
numeric calculation attempts with text instead of numbers generates an error to
more easily detect odd cell content.
