so my understanding is that if started with compiz this actually launches ok
isn't that the plan?

It's just a bug in flatten mode. Probably fixable.

In the mean time, flatten mode works fine with: libreoffice -nologo

Even better would be to not require flatten mode at all. So fix bug 1497085 instead.
