please make sure to reproduce on a current release to make sure this
isnt yet another sideeffect of Bug 1214352. Thanks.

Title:
   FILEOPEN: Opening file from Samba share produce Document in Use
  dialog (~/.gvfs or mount.cifs)

Status in LibreOffice Productivity Suite:
  Unknown
Status in libreoffice package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  This bug is somehow related to other -  LibO 72337 [1].

  I'm on Ubuntu 12.04.5 with all updates and LibreOffice 3.5.7.2
  Build ID: 350m1(Build:2)
  (libreoffice 1:3.5.7-0ubuntu7) from official repository.
  The problem exists in more modern versions of LibreOffice from PPA (3.6.6-0ubuntu1~precise1~ppa1 , 4.0.4~rc2-0ubuntu1~precise1 , 4.1.6-0ubuntu1~precise1~ppa1 , 4.2.8~rc2-0ubuntu1~precise1 , 4.3.6~rc2-0ubuntu1~precise1 , 4.4.1~rc2-0ubuntu1~precise1).

  Steps to reproduce:
  1. I have shared Public folder (read write, allow guest) from other Ubuntu 12.04.5 laptop using nautilus-share (0.7.3-1ubuntu2), placed test.odt file in it.
  2a. I navigate Nautilus on other laptop to smb://laptop/public, clicked 'Open in Terminal here' (or launch terminal and "cd ~/.gvfs/public\ on\ laptop").  Run "libreoffice test.odt" in terminal.
  2b. I navigate Nautilus on other laptop to smb://laptop/public, clicked on 'test.odt' file.
  2c. I mount share from terminal with
  sudo mount.cifs //192.168.3.11/public /mnt/smb/ -o uid=`id -u`,gid=`id -g`,guest,sec=none,noperm
  then
  libreoffice /mnt/smb/test.odt

  3. Got "Document in Use" window with text:

     Document file 'test.odt' is locked for editing by:

     Unknown User

     Open document read-only or open a copy of the document for editing.

     Open Read-Only     Open Copy     Cancel

  4a. If I click 'Open Read-Only' the document is opened in read-only.
  4b. If I click 'Open Copy' the "Untitled 1" document is opened.
  4c. Cancel closes this window.

  Expected results:
     The "test.odt" files is opened in read-write mode, user can edit it.

  Actual results:
     User can't edit original document (see pp. 3-4 above).

  This functionality is essential. Please fix this bug.

  Notes:
    If I try to open document with the command 'libreoffice smb://laptop/public/test.odt' I run into other bug (bug 1214352).
    If I use Windows as SMB/CIFS server I can open and edit document from share.
    Problem does not exist with SFTP(SSH)- or NFS- file-servers.
    My test results are located in Google Docs/Drive Table (  http://goo.gl/jY9Ubj  ).

    Global Samba config (/etc/samba/smb.conf) is default.
    My useshare config is:
      cat /var/lib/samba/usershares/public
      #VERSION 2
      path=/home/norbert/Public
      comment=
      usershare_acl=S-1-1-0:F
      guest_ok=y
      sharename=Public
