Bug#929464: libreoffice-writer: [Table] Can’t create rowspan=2 cells as I wish

Hi Nicolas,

As a work-around for the time being, you can make this pattern if you include 
a 3rd column in the table. You can't delete the third column or the remaining 
cells get merged as you say, but you can set the 3rd column to approximately 
zero size and make its borders invisible.

cheers
Stuart
