          Priority: medium
            Bug ID: 65056
          Assignee: [email protected]
           Summary: Search and replace, with tracked changes on, changing
                    only format of text, causes Writer to hang
          Severity: normal
    Classification: Unclassified
                OS: All
          Reporter: [email protected]
          Hardware: Other
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
           Version: 4.0.2.2 release
         Component: Libreoffice
           Product: LibreOffice

Create new text document with contents "Hello, World".
Turn on change tracking (under Edit).
Select Find and Replace (under Edit).
Put "Hello" (no quotes) in both the find and the replace boxes.
Click on "More".
Put cursor in Replace box.
Click on Format.
Set it to, say Italic (leave other options empty). Accept.

And now, for the fatal part: Click "Replace all".
If you just replace one, you'll see why the latter fails. The replacement value
gets inserted beofre the original, so then it continues on and sees the
original again... ad infinitum.

What should happen: If it just put its position after the original text when
searching and replacing, it wouldn't have this problem.
