Demonstration of Bug

Ubuntu 15.04 x64
LibreOffice 4.4.2.1 (also confirmed on 5.0) - probably inherited from OOo but
not confirmed

Description:
If you use a tab in a heading and then make an automatic TOC, the TOC gets
completely screwed up:
1) It seems like text to the right of the tab gets "right justified";
2) Lots of periods get placed in the entry (between the text to the left and
right of the tab)

Workaround is possible but it's not perfect:
1) allow manual changes to table;
2) Delete periods between the text to the left and right of the tab;
3) Add spaces to "mimic a tab"

Two ways to reproduce:
1) Open writer;
2) Select Heading 1 style from sidebar dropdown;
3) Write "test";
4) Push tab
5) Write "another test"
6) Insert ToC
a) On 4.4 Insert -> Indexes and Tables -> Indexes and Tables -> Ok on dialog

Observed: Tab is replaced with a lot of periods;
Expected: Tab is treated like a tab

Another way:
Do steps 1-3
4) Insert the table but allow manual changes
a) On 4.4 Insert -> Indexes and Tables -> Indexes and Tables - uncheck
"Protected Against Manual Changes" -> OK
5) Manually click into the ToC entry ("test"), place cursor at the end of
"test" and push tab

Observed: Same bad behavior, tab replaced with a ton of periods
Expected: You get just a tab


Marking as:
Minor - there is a workaround;
Low - default for
