--- Comment #12 from Radomir Terber <rara at post.cz> ---
Since I do not know OOXML specification, I posted this bug for curiosity that
the behavoiur of both tools is different. I didn't know which kind of
incompatibility is it. I only observed different behaviour of both - LO and
Word. 

I mentioned that this document is generated and of course we can fix it in the
generator. So from my perspective everything is OK when I know the cause :)

However I guess the discussion here is relevant. The best solution would be to
perform deep validation of format of all files against specifications and to
show message if any file does not follow specification - with option to open
document with potential data loosing. Also I see space here for independent
tool that would may correct such documents (out of he scope of the LO itself).

But I understand that the check are time consuming and a lot of work. So
probably current "solution" (to ignore it) is acceptable. Especially in case
when word itself can't create such kind of error.
