I can confirm with Version: 5.2.0.0.alpha0+; win7
When I change anchor of table to "to page" then "as character" ->  placement of the table is the same as in Word.

repro 7.6+

So, these are some rather bizarre tables. The table under point 1 is actually only 5 rows long, and contained inside of a textbox.

The next page has another textbox containing a new table with the contents of cell 5 to the end of the table with cell 9.

Points 2 and three are the same idea.

Surprise, surprise: that isn't working well in LO. Actually it isn't all that bad. Just that point 2 doesn't know which page to anchor on. So it overlaps the textbox/table on the previous page.
