A short sample document

This problem is similar to another one I reported for 3.0 (Bug 94854), but not identical: there the problem was document-specific (disappeared after rebuilding the document on the newer version), was dependant on document length and was not easy to reproduce on new documents, characteristics not shared by this problem. 

To reproduce *this* problem, 

1- download the attachment
2- go to page 3: you'll see part of the text to the left of the page highlighted in yellow.
3- shrink Writer's window up to when the horizontal scroolbar becomes usable
4- click on the yellow text

Result: cursor jump to the heading instead of remaining where you clicked.

On page 7 the situation is even worst: cursor jumps to footer of previous page.

Tests:

1- with the problem triggered, zoom out reducing the work area until the scrollbar is not usable any more: problem disappears. Or
2- enlarge Writer's window until scrollbar is not usable any more: problem disappears.

This issue does not depends on the note inserted on page three: the note only increase the threshold to trigger the problem. 

The problem only affect cursor positioning with the mouse: moving the cursor with the keyboard does not show the problem. 

Tested on 3.4.1 and AOO400m2(Build:9701)  -  Rev. 1493305
