locators disappear in quick format bar
LO 4.0.x, Zotero 4.0.9, LO plugin 3.5.6, tested on linux and Windows:
Steps to reproduce:
1. Insert a citation to open the quick format bar
2. Select a citation and add a page number, e.g. by typing p. 123 after the citation (but inputting it in the locator field has the same effect, if slightly less confusing.
Behavior: The locator disappears from the quick format bar (though it is still visible in the pop-up triggered by ctrl+down and appears in the citation).
Expected behavior. The locator appears in the quick format bar as in Smith 1776, p. 123

As a further clarification, if you don't "choose" the item, but merely let it be highlighted in the list of potential items that is displayed when using the Word citation plug-in, you can actually see (and edit) the page number you include after inserting the ":". It seems to only happen when you have selected a single item and the menu of items disappears, that the page number will similarly disappear.
