Expected result is that it must be positioned according to the *positioning* defined for the object, where anchoring *may* play *some* role. See FAQ [1] (that you had been pointed to several times already, so it is very confusing why this misunderstanding issue arises again and again - can you point what should be improved in the explanation?). Specifically here: the vertical *positioning* of the objects is N cm *from top* to "Margin", which means "to entire paragraph area" (this is handled in tdf#149252). So your blue rectangle object must be put 1.11 cm under the top edge of the *current* paragraph (e.g., *inside* which the anchor is located). So anchor has *some* effect here - it specifies which paragraph will be taken into account - but otherwise, the positioning rule does not care where exactly in the paragraph the anchor is (but for other positioning rules, like "Center" to "Character", it would matter). The separation between anchoring and positioning allows for great flexibility. This is not a bug.
