Configuration:
AOO 4.1.3. (Build:9783) - Rev. 1761381

OS Name Microsoft Windows 10 Home CZ

I was able to reproduce the problem following the steps in the original report.

I also did some follow up tests with these findings:

1) Writer crashes only if the table moves over a page break by inserting lines,
not by removing lines (e.g. using backspace)
2) Adjusting following table properties:

-Name

-Size 

-Autoformat options

does not seem to affect the problem- its fully reproducible even after these
properties are modified or selected
3) The problem doesn't occur when the table has a heading and the option
“Repeat heading” is checked. Without checking this option, the problem persists
4) The problem doens't occur, when the option “Keep with next paragraph” is
checked. To check this option, right click on the table, select the “Text flow
tab” 
5) The problem doesn't occur when the the table property “Don't split the
table” is checked

Tables are commonly used in text documents. With the way how most of users edit
documents it's just a question of time when a table will move over a page
break. I believe that this problem can lead to significant frustration among
the Writer users, as they can lose hours of their work because of it. Because
most of them probably wont have time/will to look for workarounds of this
problem, they might consider Writer as a product that is frustrating/ not
reliable enough for them to use and turn to comparable product.
