Example of text block with table

It's quite strange bug in Writer module in Version: 4.2.0.0.beta2 Build ID: 1a27be92e320f97c20d581a69ef1c8b99ea9885d

Steps to repeat:
1. open attached file, 
2. move mouse cursor to beginning of text before table,
3. press left mouse button to start selecting text,
4. move mouse with pressed left button down,
5. when cursor reaches table highlighting disappears from text before table and nothing is selected,
6. works in both directions.

At the same time Ctrl+A to select all content works fine.

Ubuntu Linux 13.04, 32 bit with Mate desktop environment
