sample to illustrate the error

Open the attached file.
Make sure Edit->Changes->Show is active
Reformat the paragraph at line 7 ("This sentence should not have...") to the style "Text Body".
Save the file.
The paragraph that was just reformatted reverts to the previous style (in this case, Sidebar).

The error does not occur if the Edit->Changes->Show is not active.

In evaluating the priority, please consider that this error can result in unexpected changes to a document especially during an Accept/Reject session on a document destined for publication.

@MBA: As described, Paragraph formatting changes on save.
Comment 2 Oliver-Rainer Wittmann 2012-06-13 12:25:30 UTC 
getting rid of value "enhancement" for field "severity".
For enhancement the field "issue type" shall be used.

Attached another sample file. If you delete a paragraph complete with end-of-line (or a sequence of paragraphs), the following paragraph will be reformatted with the style of the first of the deleted paragraphs.

With AOO 3.4.1 it doesn't seem to matter if tracked changes are visible or not. With "Show tracked changes" enabled, the reformat happens on next (auto)save. With "Show tracked changes" disabled, the reformat happens immediately.
