Title:
  LibreOffice no longer converts text to table correctly

Status in libreoffice package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Text-to-table conversion converts into a single line/row of cells.
  This isn't correct.  It should honor line breaks (or some arbitrary
  separator) and place succeeding column cells in a new row.

  There used to be an option in the conversion which allowed the user to
  specify arbitrary line/row break character(s), but there isn't any
  linebreak option in the present implementation.

  Text-to-table conversion worked correctly under 12.04, which I haven't
  used for several months now, having upgraded to 14.04.
