3) What is expected to happen in LibreOffice Writer via the Terminal:
cd ~/Desktop && lowriter -nologo
Ctrl+F -> Search bar box foo[^\[:alpha:\]] -> click More Options button -> checked Regular expressions checkbox -> clicked Find button
and it fails quickly and gracefully.
4) What happens instead is Writer becomes and remains unresponsive.
ORIGINAL REPORTER COMMENTS: On my system this will reliably crash soffice.bin. I realize the example regex is probably not a good idea in the first place, but that shouldn't crash the application.
