Description:
When a Word (docx) document has a table which contains a numbered list (one value per table row), the values can be skipped when the document is opened with LibreOffice if additional formatting was used in the table such as Merge Cells and Split Cells.
To reproduce the issue, cells in the column next to the number must be split into multiple rows; or multiple cells which contain values of the numbered list must be merged into a single cell. Word displays the numbered list correctly under these conditions, but LibreOffice will skip those values as if they are hidden.
In addition to apparently missing/skipping number values, the numbered list displayed in LibreOffice makes it appear as if there were more steps which are not displayed. In the example, the original list ended at 16 but as displayed in LibreOffice it ends at 24.
This problem can also be reproduced natively within LibreOffice when creating a similar document but steps are provided based on MS Word as this is what the customer is using to create the original files.

Steps to Reproduce:
1.View the sample Word document provided. 
Alternately
In MS Word, create a 3 column table.
Select the entire first column and click Numbered List from the Home tab.
Add additional rows to the table as needed.
To reproduce the merged cell result:
Select 2 or more cells in the first column where the numbered list values exist.
On the Layout tab of the ribbon, click Merge cells.
MS Word will adjust the numbered list to make the values consistent.
To reproduce the split cell result:
Pick one of the other cells from the middle column (do not select the same rows used as the merge example).
On the Layout tab of the ribbon, click Split Cells and select to create 2+ additional rows.
Save the Word document as docx.
Open the document in LibreOffice Writer and check the display of the numbered list within the table.

Actual Results:
Some values are skipped in the numbered list (Skipped 4,5, 17, 18, 21, 22)

Expected Results:
The numbered list is reproduced in the same way Word displays it.
