I am still getting this bug as bad as ever in Precise. This bug is
nearly 9 months old, and is AGRIVATING! I hate having to restart my
libreoffice just because I 'mistakinly' tried to resize the window from
the bottom right.

Ubuntu is the only distribution with this problem, why isn't this bug
getting fixed?

  3) What is expected to happen is one may resize a LibreOffice window
  from the bottom right by putting the mouse icon to the bottom right of
  the window, click and hold, and move the window size as desired.

  4) What happens instead is if the white arrow pointing down and to the
  right, clicking will bring up the File Menu, as well undesirable affects
  (ex. the whole sheet is highlighted but clicking inside does not
  unhighlight, can no longer resize). Other corners and sides works fine
  for resizing the window. A screenshot of this problem: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libreoffice/+bug/749986/+attachment/2078779/+files/Libreoffice_resize-grip.png

  WORKAROUND: Resize using the top left and right corners or ALT+F8 and
  use the keyboard.

  WORKAROUND: create a .gtkrc-2.0__libreoffice file in your home
  directory, with the following content:

  style "default-style"
  {
    GtkWindow::resize-grip-height = 0
    GtkWindow::resize-grip-width = 0
  }

  class "GtkWidget" style "default-style"

  and then launch libreoffice writer (or another component) with the command:
  GTK2_RC_FILES=.gtkrc-2.0__libreoffice libreoffice -writer

  WORKAROUND: Make sure the black arrow pointing down and right shows up,
  then resize is successful.

  + Not reproducible in Xubuntu 11.10 32-bit.
