There are no known bugs related to "Insert into". (In fact, there no
known bugs at all, only features implemented in a way which annoys some
users.)

99.99% of the time, "Insert into" is used to insert an element inside a
piece of text at the caret position. If what you do is not related to
some text and to the caret position, please ignore the "Insert into"
command.

Currently, "Insert into" will not guess at which position a <colspec> is
to be inserted in the <tgroup>. That's why, like you did, you really
have to select <tbody> and use "Insert before".
