SBA->norbert2: A bug within a budoc? Do you want a seperate issue for this?
Haha! :-)
Back to business...
Please give "Issue cross-readers" a chance to guess what an issue is about
WITHOUT reading a description from a bugdoc. I adjusted the summary. The old
summary "Problems navigating the cursor through documents with tables" was too
vague. All "defect" issues are about "Problems" or "Bugs".
Note that there are different cases described, so this "smells" a little like an
(by default invalid...) collective issue. Thank you for your comprehension.

But there is good news, too...

SBA->FME: A new table model is underway and AMA told me that you were aware of
the problematic cursor traveling in "tortured" tables. So please take this issue
and the 4 variations described in the bugdoc into account. Maybe not all
variations can be solved with feasible effort, please comment.

Reassigend to FME.
Comment 6 norbert2 2007-02-14 16:08:40 UTC 
Does the "new table model" also fix Issue 74506?
Comment 7 frank.meies 2007-02-14 17:24:55 UTC 
fme->norbert2: I strongly suggest to separate the two categories. Let's take
this issue as the one for category 2 (traveling inside a table). I'll set the
target to 'OOo later' since I doubt that we will fix this issue soon. We just
implemented a new table model which should eliminate this kind of problems (at
least for the new tables). Please submit a new issue for the category 1 problems
if you like.

("Category 1" problems are now described in Issue 76283.)
