There is a serious bug in OpenOffice Writer (possibly in other tools too) that
causes instant crash of the application. Situation, described below happened to
me twice with (nearly) disastrous results. Description may seem strange but it
happened twice so I think it should be reported.

Versions affected: 2.1, 2.3 (both 100%), possibly all versions from 2.0 up

OS:
 - Slackware Linux v.12 (+ OO 2.3) on Intel dual core
 - Windows XP (+ OO 2.1) on laptop with Intel P3 mobile

Description:
In both cases I was composing document, rich with formulae and pictures. When
the writing process was approaching final phase, document was quite complex in
terms of inserted objects. When doing final corrections I was moving up and down
the document and here Writer crashed twice. Application died immediately
destroying all my work (up to last manual save - I disabled auto saving because
the process was quite slow).
I noticed it can happen only when manually moving the slider with mouse up or
down and (possibly) with mouse cursor outside the slider area when moving.
I suspect that the bug is the object placement/rendering (or whatever it is)
when sliding the document with slider. However, PgUp/Down, cursors and mouse
roller do not cause crash (at least in my case).
I also suspect that it can happen only when there are lots of equations in the
document. I guess it cannot happen with text only document or text+picture
document but I'm not sure.

Regards
Vid
