--- Comment #11 from kol...@numericable.fr ---
This is not the disturbing of a normal feature: some people assigned a feature
to the Scroll Lock key  because of a bug in X11 and Wayland which prevents the
key from working as expected. The normal feature, as originally intended, is to
modify the behavior of arrow keys and that’s what LO Calc now does.

Also, adding an option to disable this feature means more complexity. Is the
feature on or off, how will the ordinary user (possibly used to Excel which
supports it) will figure it out? Not everybody reads the release notes. And
what happens when or if the bug is fixed in X11 or in Wayland? (See
<https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=94226> and
<https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=104050>).

So, IMHO, no option to disable this is needed for the reasons explained above.
If, however, developers decided to add such an option I think it should be
disabled by default and the decision to enable it should be left to distro
maintainers and/or the end users in order to avoid confusing the huge majority
of the user base. Just my 2 cents.
