--- Comment #1 from Regina Henschel <[email protected]> ---
Calc does not allow more than one paragraph in a cell and it uses cell styles.
In Calc I see a similar problem. The "AutoFormat Style" applies a direct
formatting of attributes, which were defined in a cell style in the source of
that "AutoFormat Style". I guess, that the old binary autotbl.fmt is not able
to contain styles. (But I don't know any documentation of that format). Writer
uses the same old binary autotbl.fmt. In regard to the old binary format, I
would consider this a "Wontfix", because the goal is to get rid of the binary
format. 

The new table style in Writer uses the ODF element <table:table-template>. This
has children, which are able to reference a cell-style. A cell-style can
contain paragraph and text properties. But the Writer UI has no tools to define
cell styles. So I think, that this is not really a bug, but a missing feature
in the implementation.

LibreOffice would need an implementation of cell-styles in Writer (and in
Impress/Draw too). And it would need a new UI for defining table styles
including custom paragraph style and text style. Such UI is complex, because it
is possible, that a cell can contain more than one paragraph and each paragraph
can have a background in addition to the table-cells background.

Whether a table style should overwrite existing formating or not, when the
table style is applied, is an additional problem.
