A workaround for this is Secondary click the table -> primary click Table... -> click the Borders tab -> in the Spacing to contents area, the four fields are 0.04" by default with the Synchronize checkbox checked. Change all 4 fields to 0 -> click the OK button. However, it is more convenient if the default install had this workaround already committed.

I also noted the same thing as downstream and agree looking at it from the experienced user/developer perspective, not a bug. Looking at it from the new(er) user, it is a big issue. I personally went through months of creating one page documents with tables at the end and making sure one line was left at the end because how to remove it was not known. I got fed up and finally made a bug ( https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openoffice.org/+bug/691296 ). Other people have also experienced this same issue and addressing this is one less thing a new user has to deal with to ease the transition from a competing suite to LibreOffice. I (naively) searched the source code for Contents to spacing area via Places -> Search for Files to edit it and recompile, did not find it. Any suggestions? Your understanding is appreciated.

So I'd call this a BUG, not an enhancement.

This means that you cannot get rid of new line characters between tables. It also means that you cannot get rid of a new line character when it follows a table at the end of a document. This latter case can mean that you need to reduce the size of the bottom page margin just to make sure then new line character doesn't get printed on a new page. What ought to happen is that there should be no new line of text after a table unless you actually want one. WORKAROUND: Secondary click the table -> primary click Table... -> click the Borders tab -> in the Spacing to contents area, the four fields are 0.04" by default with the Synchronize checkbox checked. Change all 4 fields to 0 -> click the OK button. Change the font size of the space to 1 and notice the second page disappears with the cursor immediately below the table on the first page. WORKAROUND: Go to end of paragraph in right bottom cell -> Ctrl+Shift+Delete.
