--- Comment #12 from John L. ten Wolde <john...@telus.net> ---
I just upgraded to 7.2.2.2 and immediately got hit with this bug (new feature?)
and find it interesting that all reports and duplicates about this issue so far
have been in regard to Thunderbird or Firefox. My situation is even more
straight forward, I think.
I have a number of shared templates which I keep on all my systems in:
/usr/local/share/libreoffice/
I only find a need to edit or update these files on rare occasion and their
ownership belongs to root, making them, by definition 'read-only' for a normal
user.
So now, *every time* I start Writer I'm presented with a blank grey screen and
the pop-up saying "Document file 'outline.ott' is read-only." I then choose
the "Open Read-Only" button, and after a ridiculously long (5 to 15 second)
delay I get a new, editable "Untitled 1" copy as I normally would have *without
any wait* in previous versions.
Since every part of my workflow involves calling up a new instance of one or
more of these shared templates you can understand that I am seeing this pop-up
box *a lot*.
Also, if (on Writer invocation) I choose the "Cancel" button instead,
LibreOffice immediately exits me back to my desktop.
I'm guessing this isn't the intended user experience?
