Repeatable Example

The attached example shows the problem in a repeatable way.
Go to p15 and delete the carriage returns above Holly Blue, save and reopen -
you will find all the arrows and labels completely mangled. I found also in
moving them back (or creating new ones) and resaving, they just jump back again
but adding CR before that table makes them ok.
Much of the time they have not been repeatable, yet happen all the time,
because you often only discover on reopening the document or when you look
further down the document and find an impact.
This isn't the only problem. In general, I'm using pictures in table cells with
drawing elements (arrows and text boxes) and they are constantly mangled by all
sorts of processes - moving something somewhere else in the document (you
discover later the mangling), moving the table (particularly cut and paste -
dragging to a new place seems to be much much safer). It's far worse when you
have a single table so I am using 1 or 2-row tables that are separate and this
'contains' the mangling to individual tables and allows reordering the tables
by drag-and-drop without wrecking the drawing elements in the document so much.
I have to take a PDF snapshot all the time, so I can check every day etc what
gets mangled and fix it back. In terms of quality level the bug puts
tables-with-drawing-objects as not fit for production, but I am using
Libreoffice because it can export without quality loss, so I can put little
insets which people can zoom into on a PDF program.
