Bug Description

Binary package hint: abiword

This is on an abicollab document, opened via "open shared document".

Changing the highlighting of a word or minor formatting changes like changing the font size will cause the author color to switch. This is wrong and distracting, though I realize that some might disagree.

Oddly, if you change the font size of a few letters in the middle of a word, the entire left half of the word changes color.
