Adam,
In this case I would agree using a grout mixture a with a latex additive to improve the bond . remember when using latex additive these reduce the pot life of the grout.

John,
Its about 300 sq ft of honed limestone with thousands of 1/8" to 3/8" holes. Tiles are 18"x18" with bush hammered edges and with significant lippage. It is a kitchen and entry with very similar problem like in that house that we saw together and where Butch was chasing flying squirrels.

Adam,
Why would you not fill the holes with a polyester fill, instead of using grout? What finish is on the floor? Is it a polished finished or a honed finish?

Partners,
I need to fill holes in limestone floor with 1/2 inch wide, sanded grout lines. I want to use snow white unsanded grout mixed with latex additive as a filling material but obviously that will mess up sanded grout between tiles. I am planning on buffing the floor afterwords to get rid of any residue and at this time won't do any honing. Do you you have any ideas?
