Hmm, there's no such option :(

I can choose Tools/Options and it opens a window. Within that I can
select LibreOffice -> General to select a page/tab/whatever. But there's
no Use LibreOffie dialogs buttons/checkboxes/etc. If I click on the Help
button on that page and view the topic 'opening;dialogue box settings',
it tells me the same thing you do; that there should be such an option.
But it's not there. There's options for:
- Help
- Document status
- Year (two digits)
- Enable experimental (unstable) features

but there's no
- LibreOffice Help formatting
- Open/Save dialogue boxes

I don't know what that means!
