@Björn: Oops, sent an email with the licence text - thanks!
I sent an e-mail with licence text also. It looks like me and Gregg King unfortunately did the same job... Maybe to avoid next repetition I will continue from last error ('usr/lib/libreoffice/program/libwriterfilterlo.so userA users') and will continue to top?
Adam, that sounds good, I'll start at the top and go down.
Submitted patch to the mailing list with fixes for "usefull" to "useful".

I found 'userA' only (except 'userArg', 'userAgent', 'userAction') in file oox/source/token/tokens.txt. Next to it there are strings 'userB' , 'userC' etc. So I assume that this one is false positive.
@Adam, @Gregg: Would you mind if I contribute to this bug by taking some errors from the middle of the list (so we can avoid collisions with each other)? I was thinking about these for example: (I: libreoffice-core: spelling-error-in-binary usr/lib/libreoffice/program/libmergedlo.so usefull useful) (I: libreoffice-core: spelling-error-in-binary usr/lib/libreoffice/program/libmergedlo.so Paramater Parameter) (I: libreoffice-core: spelling-error-in-binary usr/lib/libreoffice/program/libmergedlo.so accessable accessible) (I: libreoffice-core: spelling-error-in-binary usr/lib/libreoffice/program/libmergedlo.so Resizeable Resizable) (I: libreoffice-core: spelling-error-in-binary usr/lib/libreoffice/program/libooxlo.so teH the) (I: libreoffice-core: spelling-error-in-binary usr/lib/libreoffice/program/libooxlo.so userA users)
git grep -w 'teH' gives me nothing. False positive ? @Vojta I don't mind of course :) But notice that some errors repeats - for example userA, teH (I think that those two are false positives, but you may check that). Today (if i will have enough time) I will try to correct 'I: libreoffice-dev: spelling-error-in-binary usr/lib/libreoffice/sdk/bin/idlc.bin REMOVEABLE REMOVABLE'
Just submitted patch fixing the misspelled word "Resizeable".
I fixed "informations" and patch is submitted. @Vojta: Welcome to the party!
Fixed the word "paramater" and submitted the patch. I found "accessable" as false positive.
