KWord's own test docs are better made in .kwd format though, since differences
could come from the .wri importer :)

Difficult to debug, could come from fonts etc....

Yep, I can see that the inline image is misplaced when first opening the document,
and that inserting a paragraph somewhere before it makes it be re-placed correctly.
But when I tried to make a simpler .kwd testcase of the bug, I couldn't reproduce it.
Hmm probably because the .kwd includes the absolute position of the frame.
So I would need a simpler .wri file showing the bug, it's hard to find my way in 
the formatter's debug output if there are so many pages and paragraphs.
