Fido, thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. The issue you are reporting is an upstream one and it would be nice if somebody having it could send the bug to the developers of the software by following the instructions at http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/BugReport . If you have done so, please tell us the number of the upstream bug (or the link), so we can add a bugwatch that will inform us about its status. Thanks in advance.

I've just checked in LibreOffice's bug tracking system, and there's already a bug report on this issue (#32786 https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=32786).
The funny thing is that is marked as fixed in version 3.3.0.RC because it was fixed on OpenOffice (http://openoffice.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=115128).

For you information, the version number in freedesktop bugzilla means the version which this bug affects, not the version to be fixed.
Anyway, this bug is fix upstream in master branch, which will be in next major release (version 3.5, release in Feb 2012 [1]). So I'll leave the bug status as is.

PS. If you want to test, you may use daily builds at [2], but use at your own risks ;) Thanks!
