Word doc import does not preserve 'text direction' in table cell.

If you import a Word doc that has text in a cell that is vertically positioned, OpenOffice seems to ignore it.. See atatched screen shots and sample DOC file.

I can Reproduce the problem on OpenOffice 1.1 RC4(default Install, US), Win XP Pro Sp1. (And MS Office XP Sp2). It is real problem original text is from bottom to top (same as normal text rotated -90) displayed in OO as from top to bottom
That's because Writer's tables do not support "Text direction" for its contents.
Target 2.0.
