Research direction

Start by locating the InsertParagraphAfterSelf method and the FollowingTables and InsertTableAfterSelf behavior. Reproduce the reported paragraph-and-table scenario from the issue, then verify that inserting a paragraph preserves the following tables so copying the original paragraph includes them.

Description

Hi, I have found a problem that when I add a paragraph using the .InsertParagraphAfterSelf(paragraph) method, FollowingTables are not wrapped into the new paragraph.
Example:

If I start copying the first paragraph 1. One, it will be copied without the table. Which is why I have to write something like this:

      public static Paragraph InsertParagraphAfterSelfWithTables(this Paragraph self, Paragraph paragraph)
        {
            var newParagraph = self.InsertParagraphAfterSelf(paragraph);

            if ((paragraph.FollowingTables?.Count ?? 0) > 0 && 
                (newParagraph.FollowingTables?.Count ?? 0) == 0)
            {
                foreach (var table in paragraph.FollowingTables!)
                {
                    newParagraph.InsertTableAfterSelf(table);
                }
            }

            return newParagraph;
        }
