super yuck. This is caused by the footnote creating fake page styles (Converted2 and Converted3) and those fake page styles use default margin values, resulting in a negative margin when there should be a section margin of 0. I'll bet footnotes mess up lots of page style stuff.
Created attachment 150725 [details] endingSectionProps.docx: document showing the need for section indents It is safe to do a partial revert of the section indent - this never worked before, so it won't be a regression. The problem is that we don't know what page style underlies this section - and thus can't tell how much to indent. Because the endnote is interjecting a fake page style, we can't just assume the margins of the last page style seen. Probably endnote sections need to be identified, and the inherit function needs to skip over these. Preferably, they won't show up as actual page styles either...

It has been pushed to "master": https://git.libreoffice.org/core/+/d7e6c898f5ec8fbd142f9d3e1c46dfcf90edfc27%5E%21 tdf#124637 writerfilter: partially revert import section margins It will be available in 6.3.0. The patch should be included in the daily builds available at https://dev-builds.libreoffice.org/daily/ in the next 24-48 hours. More information about daily builds can be found at: https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Testing_Daily_Builds Affected users are encouraged to test the fix and report feedback.
Leaving this issue open since the title is still accurate - section margins still need work. Use the document in comment 3 instead. See the patches for code pointers.
