+Subject: [PATCH] tdf#128138 sw_redlinehide: fix infinite loop in
+ FindAttrsImpl()
+
+The code looked wrong previously, always assigning the end of the text
+node regardless of direction, but it turns out the improvement caused an
+infinite loop... let's just swap things after the loop, seems simpler
+than adding another if at the assignments.
+
+(regression from 4caef398af256be5f0c2a159129b528ee3702e5c)
