Title:
  [Upstream] Regular Expression Search for circumflex by itself does not
  find beginning of a paragraph

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

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: openoffice.org

  1) lsb_release -rd
  Description:	Ubuntu 12.04 LTS
  Release:	12.04

  2) apt-cache policy libreoffice-calc
  libreoffice-calc:
    Installed: 1:3.5.3-0ubuntu1
    Candidate: 1:3.5.3-0ubuntu1
    Version table:
   *** 1:3.5.3-0ubuntu1 0
          500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ precise-updates/main i386 Packages
          100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
       1:3.5.2-2ubuntu1 0
          500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ precise/main i386 Packages

  3) What is expected to happen in Writer, Calc, or the Macro Editor is when one opens the Find & Replace window, with Regular Expression checkbox checked, in the Search for drop down put a circumflex in, and the beginning of every paragraph is found. Consulting the LO Wiki and built-in LO help, it is implied that using a circumflex by itself in the find field should match the beginning of a paragraph:

  4) What happens instead is nothing is found.

  WORKAROUND: Notepad++ 6.1.2:
