There is a IgnoreTabsAndBlanksForLineCalculation compatibility setting, making space character height not affect line height. It is enabled for Word file formats, and its effect can be observed in attachment 184814 [details]. This setting has no entry in Options->Writer->Compatibility. Like with bug 76005 and bug 126513, it needs to be present there.
