Another vote to please disable number recognition by default. 

This has bugged me quite frequently, and I never knew exactly what was going on
until I had to work on this big table this past weekend, which contained many
partial dates, was bugged dozens of times by the date changing at will; so I
hit the internet and started searching for answers. 

It is completely unexpected behavior that OO will replace a date that I typed
into a date that I didn't type. 

I very often use tables to keep things easily aligned & spaced out in headings
etc. and I also often work on international documents; so I know a thing or two
about keeping dates in check and sometimes needing to change the language
settings. 

But, when I'm working on a local document and type 05/2002; OO should never
change it to 05/01/02 nor change it into any other date format; as I did not
specify the actual day for reason that it was either unknown or irrelevant. 

05/01/02 could be Jan 2nd 2005 or May 1st 2002 or the 5th of Jan 2002.
