I wondered why it was a bit difficult for Norbert to reproduce this bug even
with RightZoom installed ("It did not fail quite like described"); for me,
installing RightZoom made crash LibreOffice on selecting nofill for background
color immediately. And Norbert's crash log (comment #45) looks quite different
from my own one (attachment 64499) -- it does not only contain additional
debugging info, but mentions different codepoints, and far less Accessibility
stuff as my one.

Why?

Finally I got it: I tested bug 51686 and this bug with LibO 3.5.5.3, but
Norbert's debug build is a debug version of LibO 3.6.0.2. Now LibO 3.6.0.2 (or
the whole 3.6.x branch) suffers from bug 51943: "Text color setting is broken",
which makes exactly difficult what is necessary to reproduce this bug with
RightZoom: setting the text background color does not work anymore on MacOS.
Norbert did not know this, I should have known when I suggested to install
RightZoom (comment #44), but I just thought about 3.5.x in this issue and
forgot totally about bug 51943 ...

This may explain the difference of the log files. I even fear (but I don't
know) that bug 51943 currently "covers" or "hides" bug 51686 and therefore
makes it difficult to generate useful debugging info for this present bug by
the way I suggested. Maybe because of that Norbert's crash log (comment #45)
has more to do with bug 51943 than with the present accessibility issue? If so,
then we need either to fix bug 51943 first and then make another debug build,
or to find other ways to get the debug build crash with the accessibility issue
...
