Bug Description
When zh_CN (Simplified Chinese) language is enabled for LibreOffice UI, the property windows will freeze and take much long time (more than 10 seconds) to show up.
This happens in my two home laptops and one office computer, all of which have Ubuntu 13.10 installed. It was the same when I was using Ubuntu 13.04.
This issue has been tested by someone else in an official LibreOffice QQ Qun in many other linux distributions and found no problems, so this is a Ubuntu specific bug, not a libreoffice bug.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Install LibreOffice with zh_CN lang pack ( no matter whether you install the LibreOffice offical builds, or by apt-get from ubuntu repo);
2. Start LibreOffice Calc to create a new spreadsheet. Make sure the UI language is Simplified Chinese. (If not, change the UI language in LibreOffice options menu);
3. In any cell, right click -> "单元格属性" (Format Cells).
Current behaviour:
The "format cells" window takes more than 10 seconds to show up.
(Actually, it's the same for other formatting properties window, i.e. chars, page, paragraphs, etc.)
Set LibreOffice UI language to English will solve the problem.
Expect behaviour:
The "format cells" window should show up instantly within 2 senconds, as it is for English UI.
System Info:
Ubuntu 13.10 x86. (Same for 13.04, as well as x86-64). Maybe OK before ubuntu 12.04.
Same issue no matter the system locale is zh_ch or en_US.

I filed a bug in LibreOffice bug tracker earlier, but then found this is not their bug.

Description:
LibreOffice takes much longer time for the formating window to show up. Tested both in Calc and Writer.

1. Install a libreoffice version without any lang pack.
2. Create a new spreadsheet, right-click-
3. Install the zh_ch lang pack (so the default UI language become Simplified Chinese), and do the same test as show in step 2, the formating window takes around 10s to pop up.
4. "Tools(
Current Behaviour:
Formating window takes much longer time to show up when zh_cn is enabled for UI.
OS: Ubuntu 13.10 x86, LibreOffice 4.1.3.2, sys locale: zh_cn.
In my memory, this behaviour first began since 4.0, and was reproduciable in Ubuntu 13.04. The same to use LO official build and Ubuntu build.
