            Bug ID: 132147
           Summary: "!!br0ken!!" is inappropriately used as an IAccessible
                    2 attribute for cells without formula which breaks
                    formulas detection for assistive technologies.
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 6.4.0.3 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: Windows (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Calc
          Assignee: [email protected]

In NVDA screen reader we are using content of IAccessible 2 attribute 'Formula'
to let user know if the particular cell has formula inside. When this attribute
is empty it is assumed that formula is not present. This worked well until in
LO Calc 6.4 you've started exposing "!!br0ken!!' when there is no formula. For
users every cell is now announced as having formula which is confusing and
makes navigation inefficient. In short this is not appropriate usage of IA2
attribs. Please revert this! For the time being I've worked around the problem
in NVDA.
