Description

A file saved by LibreOffice 25.2.4.3 ends each sheet with:

<table:table-row table:number-rows-repeated="1048573"><table:table-cell table:number-columns-repeated="11"/></table:table-row>

When trying to load the file, it will fail with:

SpreadsheetException: Missing required Snippet From File ID for Snippet ID __anon__gnrtd42.

Removing the empty trailing rows from ODS content.xml makes it load.
