Fixed in 3.4:
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=36684
You might want to point that out in:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libreoffice/+bug/709778
as Ubuntu is still on 3.3.2:
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libreoffice

You can download the 3.4 pre-release here & test as a .deb install:
