           Summary: Unexpected action of "insert column" in table
                    including a numbered list
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 5.2.1.1 rc
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED

          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer

Test case to be used according to the bug description

I would like to report what is possibly a corner case with respect to the table
"insert column" feature in LibO Writer.

When a numbered list is present in a table, inserting a new column causes a
behavior that is certainly unexpected by the user, even if some consideration
at how LibO may technically manage the text flow in table clearly explains it.

Suppose that you have a table that includes a numbered list

---------------------------
|1. Foo  | text text text |
---------------------------
|2. Bar  | text text text |
---------------------------

see the attached document for a test case.

Now, if you add a column to the left of the first one, the table becomes:

-----------------------------------
|1.     |2. Foo  | text text text |
-----------------------------------
|3.     |4. Bar  | text text text |
-----------------------------------

which is probably not what the casual user may expect and need (I think that
the uses would expect the list to remain confined in one column) even if it is
quite logic from a purely technical point of view.
