      hypothetical scenario, if you had just installed LibreOffice and
      written a few hundred words of copy, you wouldn't be able to
      save your work if no JVM had been installed when the program was
      launched. Apparently the file-saving functionality is one of the
      Java bits and LibreOffice needs a restart for saving to work.
      Who knew?

      Is this really so ? it'd be great to isolate and kill whatever Java is
required to save anything on Mac ?

I'm not running MacOS X, but all my LibreOffice builds are done without
Java and the only obvious broken feature is the Contributor Credits link
accessible from the help/about menu.

Java can be safely disabled from all builds (and the saving code fixed if
it really needs it on MacOS X) IMHO.
