Problem description: 

Steps to reproduce:
1. .... Try to write a document with any type of content.
2. ....Spread sheets go whacky crazy and input random stuff, Like I try to type do, and it fill in something like dog because I typed in dog earlier.
3. .... Word processor,  I try to make a simple list of stock sizes .75  .76  .77   And it freaking indents stuff, then deletes the numbers that I wrote down when I try to correct the formatting.


Current behavior:
I have to remember to turn off auto complete on every single computer I have libre (or open office) on.

Expected behavior:
Autocomplete should be off by default.  It only helps a few people in rare circumstances, other than that, it causes freaky weird errors that may not be caught.  and even loss of data (thankfully control Z worked.

While I agree with this request, I think this needs more discussion, and perhaps commentary from ux-advise.
