IMHO, it'd be great if LibreOffice could present each of its modules as completely separate 
applications,

Hmm, that would mean LOTS of changes to our packaging and distribution on OS X (something for 
which there isn't exactly an abundance of engineering resources), where there now is just one app 
bundle, LibreOffice.app. You mean there would be separate LibreOfficeWriter.app, 
LibreOfficeCalc.app, etc? Where would their shared code be? (Duplicated in each app? Sure, that 
would work, but the usual suspects would whine "think of the people who have to pay $$ per 
megabyte of download") How would installing such a thing work, if on a .dmg, dragging each .app 
separately to /Applications? Etc...
I think current approach is better, it also gives a seamless interaction between components, like 
editing Calc sheets in Writer which MS Office on Mac cannot do, but what LibreOffice needs is 
separate component links, like the ability to put Calc or Writer separately on Dock, eliminating 
extra clicks, though I am not sure if it is possible or not. In any case it would require some 
separation of components.
