That is one way to get two lines of Heading, yes. But consider this:
Your H1 Style is set to add a Page Break after the H1. Now you perform the
steps-to-reproduce.
What happens? You actually don't get a 2-line-heading but instead get two
headings. There will also be a problem if you set your headings to get them
numbered. Then, you would get something like this:

1 THIS IS MY

2 HEADING

Normal text. Normal text. Normal text. Normal text.


The proper way to get a two-line-Heading is to
(1. Just wait until your H1 is long enough to become a two-liner by itself)
2. Use SHIFT + ENTER two insert a manual page break.



And since this...

...is not the intended way of creating two-lined-headings, leaving this bug in
LO actually just takes away one very handy functionality: the ability to use
the Next-Style-option in those scenarios.


Do my thoughts on this make sense?
