Not specifically for that reason, but my workaround is to set styles 
with space *before* paragraphs rather than after them. For instance, 
Body Text has 6pt before the paragraph, lists have 3 pt before the 
paragraph, header 3 has 18 pt before paragraph and so on. That way, I 
find very few situations where I need to manually correct what comes by 
default with styles.

Just make sure that your general options are set up adequately. 
Especially important: this option should be UNchecked:
Options –> LibreOffice Writer –> Compatibility –> Add paragraph space 
and table space at the top of the page (3rd item)

One drawback of my approach is that I had to redefine the entire style 
sheet when I first started to use Microsoft Office XP, OpenOffice 2 and 
OpenOffice 3. Fortunately, when I moved to LibreOffice, I was able to 
save my settings by copying the Preference folder from OpenOffice.org to 
LibreOffice.
