so now i've finally had some time to read the lengthy description here :)
and it's immediately obvious that the cause is:

 commit 062eaeffe7cb986255063bb9b0a5f3fb3fc8e34c

 sw: Improved document comparison based on RSIDs.

so i think this is actually a feature, the "rsid" attributes are added
to styles so the "document compare" feature gives better results.

to what extent are the added spans an actual problem?
while it is nice to illustrate the problem, i'd say no actual user writes
a bunch of AAAAs into a document, saves it, loads it again and
intersperses that with Ts.

you can configure this via Tools->Options->Writer->Comparison,
but it seems that only has an effect on the actual comparison,
i.e. unchecked "Use RSID" will still cause them to be generated,
they're just ignored when you compare documents.

only thing odd to me is that in the simplest case we get a paragraph
and inside that a span covering the entire content, both with the
same rsid value, but different attributes (one a paragraph-rsid);
i'm not familiar with how these things actually work to tell
whether that is necessary.
