Standard behaviour can be defined as the working of a software in a
stable version.

> In this case scroll lock was implemented as a standard.

Normally your team is feeling offended when it is measured with MS Office.
The nice thing of Libreoffice is to do it better. :-P

Sorry - it is bad usability when you have to find out why the software
cannot be used in a accustomed matter any more and it is really pain
when you are forced to find out workarounds to compensate new "features"
that will make you crazy.

The goodie is to be able to work with Libreoffice without circumnavigate the 
pain of workarounds.
In the most cases only the absolute standard basic features are needed.
An Office package is something like a basic tool for writing text or 
calculating in a spread sheet.

Observing most other users they never use any special functionality, because 
they simply don't understand it.
So about what kind of progress we are talking about?

Thanks - the time will come to test a new stable release. :-)

Title:
  [upstream] Can't jump between cells when non-english input layout is
  active

Status in LibreOffice:
  Fix Released
Status in libreoffice package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Can't jump between LibreOffice Calc cells by arrow keys when non-
  english input layout is active. It's because Ubuntu is using Scroll
  Lock indicator (LED) to show state of layout switch, but in
  LibreOffice Scroll Lock state is used to switch between page's
  scrolling and jumping on cells.
