This time I will reply using a computer so that I can more easily 
respond to the list rather than directly...

I did a quick check on a computer using the latest version of LO and 
the grammar checker did not seem to complain about things that I created 
as a test and did not flag numbers

The version I just installed on a Windows box included "Lightproof
