Colin Keenan, I was able to reproduce the crash and have reported it as
private bug:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libreoffice/+bug/917342

I'll mark this bug as a duplicate of it. Since the private bug has
enough information provided for a developer to begin work, I'm going to
mark it as Triaged and let them handle it from here. Thanks for taking
the time to make Ubuntu better!

1) lsb_release -rd
Description: Ubuntu 11.10
Release: 11.10

2) apt-cache policy libreoffice-writer
libreoffice-writer:
  Installed: 1:3.4.4-0ubuntu1
  Candidate: 1:3.4.4-0ubuntu1
  Version table:
 *** 1:3.4.4-0ubuntu1 0

     1:3.4.3-3ubuntu2 0

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

cd ~/Desktop && wget
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libreoffice/+bug/917262/+attachment/2677806/+files/XMLform-1
-Text-Field.odt && lowriter -nologo XMLform-1-Text-Field.odt

highlight the object -> turn on Design mode -> double click the object
and the menu comes up.

4) What happens instead is Writer crashes. A screenshot of Writer as it
is crashing may be found at:

Title:
  LibreOffice crashes when editing a field in an XLM Form Document
  (xforms)

Status in “libreoffice” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Trying to edit a text box or field in an XLM Forms Document by double
  clicking or any other method brings up a blank dialogue box. Clicking
  on the dialogue box greys out LibreOffice writer in the background and
  all of LibreOffice becomes unresponsive. No matter how long I wait,
  forcequit is the only way out.

  Please see the attached screen-shot of the blank dialogue and hung
  LibreOffice writer.

  After forcequiting, trying to edit a text box or field in xforms
  crashes LibreOffice - instant forcequit.

  When first trying to report this bug, ubuntu-bug showed that I didn't
  have LibreOffice installed. After installing LibreOffice, the instant
  forcequit/crash problem went away, but LibreOffice hung again when
  trying to edit a text box.

  After forcequiting again using xkill (just now while writing this), I
  couldn't re-open LibreOffice until I stopped processes libreoffice and
  soffice in system-monitor.

  Now LibreOffice once again instantly crashes/forcequits whenever I
  double-click on a text box or field.
