the LO PPA: I had to disable that PPA, revert to ubuntu's own (4.x),
completely deinstall LO, then reinstall to downgrade. Very messy, but

Can't be a coincidence, I think.
Normal behaviour? New? Reasonable? I'm surprised, because it means gmane

If you work in mm, the 2 decimal places the GUI so unreasonably forces
will give a precision of 10μm. Not altogether convenient for the
"traditionally minded" among us though :-)

I'm sure this must be documented somewhere. All I've done is look at
