--- Comment #3 from Christophe Strobbe <[email protected]> ---
(The issue is still present in OpenOffice 4.0.)

LibreOffice has the same issue, reported at
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=35939. One of the commenters there
pointed out that the Windows Magnifier cannot follow the Java Accessibility API
focus events. This issue needs to be revisited once the IAccessible2 code has
replaced the Java Accessibility API. 

Steps to reproduce the issue.

1. Start the Windows 7 Magnifier (press the Windows key and type "Magnifier").
2. In the Magnifier options, uncheck "Follow the mouse pointer" and "Follow the
keyboard focus" but make sure that "Have Magnifier follow the text insertion
point" is checked.
3. Create, e.g., a Writer document and start typing text. Notice that the caret
in the Magnifier window does not stay in the middle but eventually moves out of
that Window. (Compare this behaviour with e.g. Notepad or a comment field on a
webpage displayed in Firefox.)
4. In the Magnifier options, "Follow the keyboard focus" and notice that the
behaviour does not improve.
Note: When the Magnifier is used in lens mode instead of docked, the caret also
moves out of the Magnifier window. 

Desired behaviour: the caret remains in the middle of the (docked) Magnifier
window; compare with behaviour in e.g. Notepad.
