--- Comment #5 from Miklos Vajna <vmiklos at collabora.com> ---
There were 2 steps:

- to-para -> as-char anchoring: the old state was suboptimal, it instantly lead
to format loss when saving to Word formats, etc. (see the commit message for
details)

My motivation was to use something by default that roundtrips to Word formats,
so as-char or to-char. We went with as-char as that's the Word default.

- as-char -> to-char anchoring: this was done because users expect to be able
to drag the just inserted image and while Word supports that, our UI does not,
so to-char is an easy compromise: still no format loss but the UI allows drag
out of the box.

I guess changing defaults is annoying, so I would rather fix root causes than
continue changing defaults. But of course, feel free to submit a change if you
disagree.
