Roxy,

I thought the labeling strange the first time I heard of it. I would
never have tried selecting the check box.

A more accurate description should be used.

I have submitted a bug report (38509) suggesting the label be changed.

And just why would Macros be considered experimental features???? Macros have been 
around forever.

To enable the macro recording you need to open TOOLS >> OPTIONS and in
the Options select LibreOffice then General. Tick the box "Enable
experimental (unstable) features" and macro recording will be enabled.

I am not sure why this is done unless it is a security feature.

I believe some things are "experimental" because the code for
implementing them is being rewritten or updated and they may not be
considered fully stable or finished or up to quality standards or
something. So even though macros have been around forever, the mechanism
for recording them (as opposed to writing them) might still be under
development. I don't know this for sure in the case of macros, but it
seems logical to me.
