If the start or end, but not both of the XML elements for the range
marking do not both fall into the same ECT bucket then you get two
opening tags and one closing tag (or the converse).

Note that the UC7 example above uses annotations, but a bookmark range
works just as well. And I assume there are a few other XML elements in
ODF which work in the same manner and will present a similar issue.
