Minimal test case
It's the minimal reproducing example. We have two tables here, first of which
imports as text even in older (4.1) versions.
The problem here is that the generating software (Consultant+) puts \itap0
control word into every paragraph, even into those that are inside tables.
[RTF 1.9.1] tells about this control word:
> \itapN Paragraph nesting level, where 0 is the main document, 1 is a
> table cell, 2 is a nested table cell, 3 is a doubly nested table
> cell, and so forth (default is 1).
Well, Consultant+ explicitly tells that the paragraph is *not* inside a table.
This contradicts with the fact that the paragraph is inside
\trowd...\cellx...\cell; and Word chooses to ignore \itap value in this
contradicting case, while we choose to honor it. I am not sure it's a bug (the
file is ill-formed, since it contains inconsistent information); nor that it's
a regression. And I'm not sure that we should try to mimic Word's way of
dealing with errors.
The Consultant+ developers seem to ignore the format specifications, but
produce garbage that only test with Word to see it happens to render as they
want. I believe that the proper way of dealing with this is to file the bug
against Consultant+, and choose to not support creating more ill-formed
documents in the wild.
