Title:
  [Upstream] Math equation editor: "newline" fails after symbols

Status in LibreOffice Productivity Suite:
  Confirmed
Status in The OpenOffice.org Suite:
  In Progress
Status in “libreoffice” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged
Status in “openoffice.org” package in Ubuntu:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  1) lsb_release -rd
  Description:	Ubuntu 11.10
  Release:	11.10

  2) apt-cache policy libreoffice-writer
  libreoffice-writer:
    Installed: 1:3.4.3-3ubuntu2
    Candidate: 1:3.4.3-3ubuntu2
    Version table:
   *** 1:3.4.3-3ubuntu2 0

          100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

  apt-cache policy libreoffice-math
  libreoffice-math:
    Installed: 1:3.4.3-3ubuntu2
    Candidate: 1:3.4.3-3ubuntu2
    Version table:
   *** 1:3.4.3-3ubuntu2 0

  3) What is expected to happen in LibreOffice Writer via the Terminal:

  cd ~/Desktop && wget
  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libreoffice/+bug/281053/+attachment/2417117/+files/math_newline_issue.tar.gz
  && file-roller -h math_newline_issue.tar.gz && cd math_newline_issue
  && lowriter -nologo math_newline_issue.odt

  is no upside down question marks are presented in the Math formulas.

  4) What happens is the upside down question marks are present
  erroneously due to "newline" command. If "newline" is preceded or
  followed by some characters (as +, -, =, which are often needed), some
  error marks "¿" are obtained, and perhaps only a single line if
  displayed (it depends on the character and its relative position to
  "newline"). Examples :

  a+b_ij = newline = c+d    # single line; error mark
  a+b_ij newline = c+d      # two lines; missing "="; error mark
  a+b_ij newline + c+d      # correct behaviour !!  The "+" sign does fine after newline...
  a+b_ij + newline c+d     # ... but not before: single line, error mark here
  a+b_ij = newline c+d     # single line, error mark. The "=" sign does bad whether after or before newline
