--- Comment #4 from Andreas Heinisch <andreas.heinisch at yahoo.de> ---
I think the regression was introduced by
https://bz.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=118887, but I think this behaviour is
not correct.

Consider the String "5a". If I search using the regex "[0-9]*", I should get 3
matches: 
- 0 to 1, which is 5
- 1 to 1 and 2 to 2, which is empty

However, if I search using "[0-9]+", I get the expected match, so imho we
should allow zero length matches at the beginning of a paragraph.
