  3) What is expected to happen in LibreOffice Writer via the Terminal:

  cd ~/Desktop && wget
  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openoffice.org/+bug/211345/+attachment/253514/+files/Vorlage%20Brief.ott
  && unoconv --listener && unoconv -f rtf Vorlage\ Brief.ott && lowriter
  -nologo Vorlage\ Brief.ott Vorlage\ Brief.rtf

  the text fields remain.
   
  4) What happens instead is they disappear.

  PARTIAL WORKAROUND: Convert to .rtf via AbiWord. This will not
  preserve the text field function but will preserve the words.

  abiword --to=rtf --to-name=Vorlage\ Brief.rtf Vorlage\ Brief.ott &&
  abiword Vorlage\ Brief.rtf
