This is an "unwanted feature" in FM, also known as a bug :-)
FM picks up the format of the first paragraph in the text inset
and uses that for the anchoring paragraph in the container document.

To avoid this, do as follows:
Always use an empty paragraph to anchor your text insets to.
Insert a hard space (Ctrl+Space) in that empty paragraph.
Put the cursor at the start of the paragraph, before the hard space.
Now import your text inset.

Check what happens when you manually update the inset after that.

This should solve the problem for you.
