Agreed.  But I know, or am pretty sure, why that's happening.  From
what I've observed, OO.o paints the document in a position within its
workspace, centered if it all fits.  But when you click on an image,
for example, or a table, there is a relevant toolbar that OO.o decides
you need to see and it will display that toolbar.  If the toolbar is
docked, its appearance changes the dimensions of the workspace and so
OO.o moves the document to accommodate.  Click off the item and its
toolbar goes away and the document is again repositioned.

Very frustrating indeed.
