Bjorn: this is definitely a ecryptfs related issue. The workaround I've found somewhere is to simply repoint HOME to an unincorporated directory like:

env HOME=/home/sergei/Unprotected libreoffice -calc

Which is not a fix but something to get by. OO and LO save all state there from that point, which might be a security risk.

Note to other users, in case you didn't realize, /home/sergei/Unprotected is a link to a directory outside of my encrypted home directory. You can make one by:

sudo mkdir /home/Unprotected
sudo chown your_login:your_login /home/Unprotected
ln -s /home/Unprotected ~
