This change silently deletes user input. LibreOffice still allows inserting literal TAB characters at the beginning of a paragraph. However, when pressing Enter the TAB character is removed automatically. This creates data loss and inconsistent editor behavior. If leading tabs are considered bad practice, the editor should either: 1. convert them to paragraph indentation 2. warn the user 3. provide a compatibility option Silently deleting characters that the user explicitly inserted is unexpected behavior and was not present in 25.8.3.2. Therefore this should be considered a regression or at least require a compatibility option. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
