Example file from Word 2013

Attached user-made and minimized document has three tables that have table style applied to them.
Upon opening in Writer, the formatting of the last table falls apart.

1. Open attached document
-> last table has wrong column widths and row style, compared to Word

Seems to have started in 7.6 with

commit ce3308a926f036b87515b8cd97d2b197063dc77a (patch)

tdf#61594 sw floattable: import floating tables as split flys by default

Note that a lot of small details are necessary to get this wrong, if I change something in Word and save, then it looks good.
- the tracked change in the first table is necessary to keep
- the second table is necessary
- the Header 1 style paragraph at the end
