--- Comment #4 from Justin L <[email protected]> ---
It is not only a picture that can do this. MS Word will also ignore the
suggested size and expand each cell to fit the longest word. Note that in MS
Word it is a 'preferred width', while in LO it is 'the width'.

Since 'preferred width' is just a minimum suggestion, it could be argued that
there is no 'correct' size in this case - although I would expect that the
as-character image would always be fully contained within the table (and that
at least one character can fit inside the cell). But that feels like a pretty
fundamental change to make to the table behaviour. (Having exact sizes allows
for much better interoperability than mere suggestions.)
