Example file from Word 2016 with 3 tables

Attached user made document contains 3 tables after each other. These have different widths and column numbers in Word, but Writer opens them as a single table, with the same width and different layout.

1. Open attached document
-> In the Navigator there is only a single table visible, the first cell with "MMM MMM." is laid out more to the left than in Word and the first row has one extra cell.

Version: 26.2.0.0.alpha0+ (X86_64) / LibreOffice Community
Build ID: b86c16870251877962e986ec9d1418e1f376241f
CPU threads: 14; OS: Windows 10 X86_64 (build 19045); UI render: Skia/Raster; VCL: win
Locale: hu-HU (hu_HU); UI: en-US
Calc: threaded

This was always imported as a single table way back to 3.4, but interestingly it was good in 3.3.
