Bug Description

Binary package hint: openoffice.org

I have a spreadsheet that was saved in a crash and then recovered. In it, rows 69-83 are hidden. When I select rows 68-84 and click Show in Format > Row or in the context menu, nothing happens. I've also tried Format > Row > Height in case the rows had simply had their height changed to zero. Also, unlike what normally happens with hidden rows, when I copy and paste to a new sheet, the hidden rows are skipped. If I manually enter a hidden cell's address in the box to the left of the f(x) button, the data shows up in the entry line just fine.

Opening the file in Ark and the content.xml sub-file in Firefox reveals that all the affected rows have the property table:visibility="filter". I've tried manually replacing content.xml with a version that has this property deleted (yielding the attached version), but Calc reports that it is corrupt and then crashes with no message when I ask it to repair the file.
