I also thought about that already, although I have currently no idea how 
to change that keyboard behavior.
BUT ... if that were true ..would / should LibreOffice not behave in the 
same way under Ubuntu (Unity desktop), Xubuntu (XFCE) and Mint (Cinnamon)?

If I revall correctly (this is an old PC of my daugther), I borrowed it 
a few years back when I had to spend a week away from home.
At that time the PC was running Windows Vista and I used LibreOffice in 
that environment, but do not remember any such behavior ...
