(In reply to Karsten from comment #33)

Lol. There are hundreds of millions (billions?) Excel users out there;
and each of them enjoys ScrollLock support, working exactly the same way
it was implemented almost 6 years ago in Calc. It's keyboard
manufacturers (comment 30) and DE authors (~all the rest telling about
strange idea to indicate keyboard layout using that indicator, as if
there might only be one alternative layout/language configured on the
system...) who "could be better thought about in advance".

And the code pointers were there since 2018 (comment 17). If no one was
affected bad enough to jump in and try to fix it, with friendly help of
mentors here offering their assistance, it indicates not a huge
problem...

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.
