Not sure your work flow is going to be stable on any spread sheet
program--too many moving parts.

But if ALL you are interested in is a solid Spreadsheet, perhaps have a look
at an alternative. Gnumeric comes to mind--http://www.gnumeric.org/

Otherwise, the "mature" LibreOffice 4.1.6 is very stable (but at the end of
its development life).

The 4.2.4 "fresh" build is just rolling out now.  

But my suggestion would be to test the calc component for 4.3.0  where there
has been very substantive refactoring work to improve its function and
stability.  It is available now in its initial alpha build--personally I'd
give that a go--it is here:
