How it looks after inserting the content control
When a Rich text content control is inserted in Writer and the user starts to
type instantly (as the placeholder suggests), the placeholder text is replaced
by the first letter, but the cursor is moved outside of the content control.
1. Go to Form - Content Controls - Rich text
2. Start typing some letters
-> the first letter replaces the placeholder text, the subsequent ones are
outside of the content control.

sw content controls: introduce a word breaking dummy char at the end
Before it was not perfect (but much better): typed characters continued to be
inserted into the content control, but pressing right arrow moved the cursor
behind the first character after the control, and not between the end and the
first character.
Now the cursor can be moved back to the content control, but only before the
last character inside.
For comparison Word does it
