A sample .odt file with instructions to reproduce

Trying to copy the format from a paragraph to another, using Format Paintbrush, it only copies Font Format (i.e. Character style, Font size and style), but not Paragraph Format (i.e. Paragraph style, Indent, Spacing Above and Below, Line spacing, Alignment, Tabs, Background color).

This problem appears only in Writer 4.0.1.2 and 4.0.2.2 but not in Writer 3.6.5.2.

Look the Writer_4.0.x_Sample.odt and Writer_4.0.x_Sample.odt.pdf files with instructions to reproduce.

I confirmed the problem using Writer 4.0.1.2 and 4.0.2.2 in various O.S. (Mint13/MATE - Mint14/Cinnamon - Ubuntu12.04/Unity - Win7 Home Premium Gr)
Operating System: Linux (Other)
Version: 4.0.1.2 release

Minor - doesn't prevent high quality work but can slow it down
