The issue actually seems to be somewhat bigger.
First, it also applies not only to direct formatting, but also to character
styles. For this I've posted a simple extension of the accepted patch, which is
now on review queue at <a href="https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/69323">https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/69323</a> .
Then, these patches do fix the problem with direct user input, but do not seem
to fix the same problem appearing when replacing text via UNO API (with
portion/cursor setString method) or from a spelling suggestion context menu. I
am going to further investigate this problem when time permits; probably
separate issue numbers should be used (I have now found <a class="bz_bug_link

filed issue for the UNO API behavior) although they are all clearly related.
I've also met this behaviour with Find&Replace, but that seems to be fixed
recently.</pre>
