            Bug ID: 121720
           Summary: [TABLE] A merged table cell across page (due to other
                    columns containing multiple rows) would cause Writer
                    hang forever
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 5.2.7.2 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: franklin at goodhorse.idv.tw

Description:
1. The file was converted from doc to odt.
2. There are tables with multiple columns which made the cell width narrow
3. A cell (in the attached file the leftest column) is across the page due to
other columns containing multiple rows, the part in the top of the second page
wouldn't be able to edit, and couldn't be clicked showing that the cell was
locked and couldn't be edited
4. Opening such files in LibreOffice 5.2+ would cause Writer hang forever with
CPU rate 100+%
5. However in LibreOffice 4.0 when clicking such a cell the cursor can go
there, just can't edit, and doesn't hang either

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open the attached file in LibreOffice 5.2+ Writer (also reproducible in
6.1.2)
2. Writer would very easily hang after some actions
3.

Actual Results:
Writer hangs forever until I manually killed the process

Expected Results:
It shouldn't hang


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: Yes



Additional Info:
In LibreOffice 4.0 it worked well opening/editing the file.

When clicking the crossed cell the cursor could go to the second part (in the
top of the second page) just couldn't edit.

In 5.2+ the cursor couldn't go there, and it hangs every time.
