    Hi Jonathon,
                 Thanks very much for your kind words. We're are *extremely*
    interested in corner cases like your word document where
    things don't work right. They help us diagnose problems
    around the edges of the program. Please post a bug to
    bugzilla with a statement of the problem and attach your
    document to the bug.

    Thanks very much,

    Martin
            Kind regards,
