demonstration of problem with Category and Number and Caption Text

The topic is the cross-reference dialog (Ctrl-F2), cross-references tab.

The problem concerns the "Category and Number" and "Caption Text" options in
the "Refer to" window.

The attached document demonstrates that these two options depend on/presuppose
the caption structure:

[Category Name] [Caption Number] [Caption Text].

Captions with this structure will behave as "expected" when using this dialog.

Deviations from this structure (as illustrated in the attachment) will not give
"expected" behavior.

Although the attachment may be considered a pathological case, there are actual
cases where formatting is:   Caption Text  ([Category Name] [Caption Number])
With that structure, then cross-references to "Caption Text" would not work as
expected. 

NB. The example in the attachment uses "Table", but the same point can be
illustrated any number range variable.

(tested with 7.2.7.2 and 7.6.0.0.alpha0+)
