--- Comment #29 from Jim DeLaHunt <from.documentfoundat...@jdlh.com> ---
OK, I've done a careful check. I think JBF may have been correct. However, I
think this may be a different Extensions Manager bug.

Procedure 1:
Install Typography toolbar extension, for All Users
Restart Libreoffice
Create new Writer document with "text123679"
Change text to Linux Libertine G font.
View... Toolbars... Typography... Make toolbar visible in window.
Select text.
Click "Oldstyle figures" button in Typography toolbar.
BASIC Syntax error occurs.
My Macros & Dialogs.typo appears.
"typo" is listed under "My Macro & Dialogs" not under "LibreOffice Macros &
Dialogs"
Line of sub prg, with syntax error, indicated by orange arrow.
Result 1: Not able to edit the contents of the macro.

Procedure 2:
Install Typography toolbar extension, click button "Only for me"
Then same as Procedure 1.
Result 1: Yes, able to edit the contents of the macro.

Test system:
LibreOffice 5.3.1.2, Mac OS X El Capitan 10.11.6, Typography toolbar extension
1.1.

Conclusion 1: Jean-Baptiste Faure (from comment #24) is correct, the Macro
Editor does not permit editing macros installed for All Users. My problem
editing is not evidence of a connection to the syntax error or the macro editor
state after a syntax error.

Conclusion 2: it is a problem that the Macro editor silently refuses to edit,
rather than giving some positive indication that editing is not permitted. It
could have the UI say "Read-only". It could put up an error alert. It could
have a different background colour.

Conclusion 3: it is strange to me that the typo macro, when installed for "All
Users", appears under "My Macros & Dialogs". I would expect it to appear under
"LibreOffice Macros & Dialogs".

I will look into filing Conclusions 2 and 3 as an Extensions Manager or Macro
Editor bug.
