        ww8import create a pagedesc if continuous section changes margins
(bnc#875383)

        This is similar to what writerfilter does. MSWord can have one page
with several
        different margins, which are saved using continuous sections, which
causes all
        kinds of trouble, because either we treat them as Writer sections,
which means
        we lose some of the data, or we treat them as Writer page styles, which
causes
        spurious page breaks if in the wrong place. Either option has its
problems, but
        here it seems slightly better to go for keeping the data and hoping the
page
        break will be in a place where a break will be anyway.

I was able to get a stable result from bibisect only by creating a new
user profile at each step.  I would welcome thoughts about why this
might be necessary.


Seeing "either option has its problems" in the log message, I wonder
if this bug is one we can fix.

I am setting keywords bibisected, bisected.
