Description Klaatu 2023-03-24 18:47:49 UTC 
This is basically the same as https://bugs.libreoffice.org/show_bug.cgi?id=45784
and https://bugs.libreoffice.org/show_bug.cgi?id=60967

In a header, I've got a table element.
A newline appears after the table, and I don't want it.
I place my cursor on the unwanted line and press Ctrl+Shift+Del.
The blank line is not removed.

I've opened styles.xml from the ODT file, and I can confirm that an extra text:p element appears after the table. 

If I remove that element, the blank line disappears from the LibreOffice header.

Example:

```xml
...snip...
  <text:p text:style-name="MP5">MY HEADER TEXT</text:p>
</table:table-cell></table:table-row></table:table>
<text:p text:style-name="MP6"/>
</style:header-first>
</style:master-page>
</office:master-styles></office:document-styles>
```

When I remove `<text:p text:style-name="MP6"/>`, the line is gone in LibreOffice.

I've only tested this in the header, but I assume it's probably true for the footer as well.

Confirmed that this happens in the Footer as well.
