Writer doc showing bug in section endnotes

Version: 6.4.4.2 (x64)
Build ID: 3d775be2011f3886db32dfd395a6a6d1ca2630ff
CPU threads: 4; OS: Windows 10.0 Build 18363; UI render: default; VCL: win;

Calc: threaded

1. Open the attached writer doc. Note that a section has been created and the option taken to allow Endnotes to collect at the end of it.

2. Open Endnote (paragraph style) > Indents and Spacing. Incrementally increase "Spacing below paragraph": each time press "Apply" and observe the changes on the page.

EXPECTED RESULT: The paragraph spacing below each endnote gradually increases. The spacing between the first endnote and "References" should remain the same.

ACTUAL RESULT: The spacing under "References" also (unexpectedly) changes—and in an unpredictable way.

3. Reset the "Spacing below paragraph" to zero. Now play with the "Spacing above paragraph" property in the same way.

RESULT: A similar kind of bug.

3. Reset the "Spacing above paragraph" to zero. Now play with the "Line spacing" property in the same way.

RESULT: Again the spacing under "References" changes, and in an unpredictable way.

Yes, I can confirm the bug on linux as well.

P.S. Incidentally, is there a setting in Writer to temporarily highlight sections (other than change, say, the colour in the "Edit sections dialogue)?
