--- Comment #4 from V Stuart Foote <[email protected]> ---
Confirming.

Version: 7.5.0.0.alpha0+ (X86_64) / LibreOffice Community
Build ID: 651658d37bcb3f493942dd5d0b9a0d65c96f105c
CPU threads: 8; OS: Windows 10.0 Build 19044; UI render: Skia/Vulkan; VCL: win
Locale: en-US (en_US); UI: en-US
Calc: threaded

LibreOffice filter import does not handle the additional HTML / XML named
character entities added for HTML5. Not just &abreve; or &Abreve; as here. The
unhandled entities are not converted to the appropriate glyph on LibreOffice
document canvas and remain plaintext.

Dante did add the handling needed for MathML support with
https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/c/core/+/108333

But something similar is needed to support Writer Web parsing the characters
from HTML/XHTML or XML.

Attached test ODF text doc shows example of the named entities not being
handled in LibreOffice Writer Web import.
