I'm flummoxed as to how to do the same in Libreoffice. I've searched for LibreOffice XML filters, but I haven't come across anything yet. Much thanks for any guidence.

Maybe you can use his template to solve your problem? http://stackoverflow.com/questions/19114932/exporting-complex-html-table-to-excel Much thanks for all of the help. I found an intermediate solution that works relatively well - a set of python command line utilities: https://github.com/knadh/xmlutils.py For an xml file that is a table, xmltable2csv converts the files to csv, and from there things fall into place. Importing into Libreoffice would be better, but save that for another day.
