I think this and Bug #1047573 may be duplicates. The reproduction steps are a little clearer and I confirm they happen to me too:
1) Launch a LibreOffice such as Libreoffice-calc using the dash 2) Open the File menu; observe that menu items such as 'Exit' are not greyed out 3) Open a dialog from within LibreOffice. For example, in cal use Data-->Pivot Table-->Create 4) Close the dialog, either by cancelling it or pressing OK 5) Open the File menu Expected results: Items in the file menu are not greyed out Actual results: All items in the File menu (such as "Exit") are greyed out, with the exception of submenus like "New" and "Recent Documents".

This happens randomly and sometimes also without any action triggers. This is a new issue we have discovered in the latest versions of Unity/Gtk+. This wrong behavior is not present in precise pangolin and Quantal Alpha 3. Can someone please confirm if this is an issue in Unity/Gtk+?
