What fun :-) you are treading well away from the beaten path I think.

Sounds like a nightmare. Then again - if you're using XEmbed across
processes, there will be all sorts of problems I'm afraid; keyboard
navigation is just not going to work eg. global keybindings are just not
there (cf. the problems you get with flash inside mozilla etc).

You'll prolly need a build of libreoffice, and a build debug=true of
vcl/ - that might spew some helpful looking warning. Also I'd try to
isolate it to the widget plugin; do: export SAL_USE_VCLPLUGIN=gen vs.
gtk to check that it is not some widget integration / backend problem.
Here be dragons though :-)
HTH,
Michael.
