Yes it seems this is the problem as WebODF, Word and Calligra all default to
off and OOo/LO default to it being on. You can see the screenshots for
odt-layout-grid-mode-both, odt-layout-grid-mode-lines, and
odt-layout-grid-snap-to havings grids enabled in these page-level tests[1].

I assume they will never support it, as MS Word doesnt have an equivalent
feature for it. Their gridline feature is like our grid feature (View > Grid),
but they dont have an additional one similar to our page-level text grid
feature.

Havent been able to find Document Grid in any 2007, 2010, and 2013, but did
find Page Layout -> Arrange > Align > Grid Settings.

Yes grids in Word are put in the background, LO puts grid in the foreground,
and because the paragraphs have a background color, you dont see the grid
behind it.

I believe there is.

Regina, Jos: What is your take?
