Description Orwel 2019-09-05 08:11:18 UTC 
Description:
If you insert some text in the header of Writer document and write-protect it with password, it can be easily removed by deleting the header, what it think is not a correct behaviour.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Write some text in a header
2. Mark the text as a write-protected Section (Menu/Insert/Section)
3. Delete the header.

Reproduce the same steps, but not in header. You can not remove the Section.

Actual Results:
The Section will be deleted.

Expected Results:
Writer should ask for the password before deleting the header.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No


OpenGL enabled: Yes

Additional Info:
I do not know which version of LO was affected as the earliest one.

UPDATE:
Bug still present in LO 7.0.4.
It does not matter if the protected section in header is password protected or nor, you can still delete the header by simple click...

The header is NOT PROTECTED from changes...
