--- Comment #4 from Stephan Bergmann <[email protected]> ---
soffice accepts arguments that are either URLs or pathnames in system-specific
notation.  Those two sorts of syntax have overlap, so there are inputs that are
ambiguous whether they shall denote a URL or a pathname, and LO uses some
heuristics there but will necessarily mis-guess in some cases.

What you need to do to disambiguate a filename containing a colon as a pathname
is to make it into a relative pathname containing a slash before the colon, as
in

  soffice ./myfile:xxxx

(The quoting examples you gave above, myfile:\xxxx and 'myfile:xxxx' are
completely irrelevant here, assuming you are demonstrating what you typed into
a Posix shell, as these quotings are undone by the shell and are not seen by
soffice.)
