An attempt to recreate the issue plus screenshots for Bug 125455

I tried to recreate the issue in a new simple file (page 1 of attached), but
everything appears as normal when reopening it. It could therefore be due to
the extra complexity of the original file (165 pages with mixed LTR and RTL
content), but it is not peculiar to that one file, as I've experienced the same
on other files as well.

When the text in the first 2-column section disappears (of original file; see
exhibits 1 and 2 on page 2 of attached file), the solution is simple. I just
click just above (outside) the section, then press return and backspace. In
another section, the content inside it is partially displayed and I have to
click inside that section and the text reappears when pressing the down arrow
key.

In a section with a numbered index displayed, the procedure is longer (see
exhibits 2 and 3 on page 3). I have to:
1. Select All inside the section
2. Go to Format Columns
3. Change the text direction back to LTR (it reverts to 'Use subordinate'
automatically when the file is closed.
4. Sometimes fix the paragraph indents and indexing again as well.

A related issue - Some inserted figures also disappear and are made to reappear
by the first method above, but this particular issue happens within a normal
(non-sectioned) area and affects interoperability - e.g. if I copy a diagram
created in LibreOffice Draw, paste it into a Writer document, and save as
doc/docx for clients, they don't see these inserted figures. The workaround is
to turn them into images which solves the problem most (not all) of the time.
