Its more work to reply to this accusation than to toggle that switch,
making it highly unlikely to be related to laziness. LibreOffice 5.0.x
being rather different from LibreOffice 4.4.x makes it quite likely to
be related to risk. Feel free to disagree, of course.

Title:
  [FFE] LibreOffice 5.0.x for wily

Status in libreoffice package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  FFE rationale:
  * A current LibreOffice major version is a important part of every Ubuntu release -- this is a feature goal

  * relevant user visible changes: https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/ReleaseNotes/5.0
  * under the hood changes: https://people.gnome.org/~michael/blog/2015-08-05-under-the-hood-5-0.html

  build logs:
  * https://launchpad.net/~libreoffice/+archive/ubuntu/ppa/+build/7847324 (amd64)
  * https://launchpad.net/~libreoffice/+archive/ubuntu/ppa/+build/7847325 (i386)

  The following testing has been done:
  * Tested with users of the libreoffice-prereleases ppa since beta versions
  * Tested with users of the LibreOffice Fresh ppa (ppa:libreoffice/ppa) since 5.0, including backports for 15.04, 14.04 and 12.04
  * Also tested with the user of the LibreOffice 5.0 (ppa:libreoffice/libreoffice-5-0), including backports
  * This upstream release is the base of the Doc Viewer for the Ubuntu Phone
  * The build has been tested to succeed on powerpc and armhf too

  Current 2015-09-03 download stats for the current 5.0.1 libreoffice-core package which was uploaded on 2015-08-28 (so covering 1 week):
  wily: amd64 182, i386 13
  vivid: amd64 6919, i386 1196
  trusty: amd64 21153, i386 7795

  So more than 30.000 installations, not counting those from the
  libreoffice-5-0 ppa.
