I have a multipage document with 2 columns and whenever I select text
that goes from one column to the other it seems to just stay hanging and
turns gray and cpu maxes out.  I am not very patient so I force close
the document. Let me know if there is anything I can do to help provide
more information. It seems fairly reproducible. Peace - Anthony

Title:
  LibreOffice Writer hangs when deleting text in attached test case

Status in libreoffice package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Deleting a few lines of text from the attached test case document
  causes LibreOffice 4.0.2-0ubuntu1 to hang.

  This minimal test case document was reduced by hand from a full,
  working document that also experienced the same hang.  The text in
  question contains endnotes, columns, and headings, most or all of
  which had to be present to reproduce the bug.

  Thread backtraces, with debugging symbols, are included in the
  attached oobug.txt file.

  Steps to reproduce are also included in the attached screen shot
  animation.

  Steps to reproduce:
  1. Open "test case 6.odt" in LibreOffice Writer
  2. Select the three lines of text in the right column
  3. Press the Backspace or Delete key to erase the text
  4. The text is not erased, and all open instances of LibreOffice hang
