LO document illustrating the bug

Have smart punctuation enabled (I mean, so that typing a space after three
periods - ... - the periods are converted to an ellipsis.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Delete a comma adjacent to a word, let's call it WORD.
2. Type three periods
3. Type a space
4. Observe that WORD is marked as deleted, and inserted
   (this is the pointless change mentioned), and more seriously:
5. the deleted comma is also inserted, i.e. its deletion has been reversed

See attached file.
