@mozaic, is this actually something that still needs fixing (in vivid)?
>From what I understand you want the grey, general-purpose icon to allow
you to create a text document or spreadsheet, etc. from the context
menu.  At least in trusty that is possible for me.

Are we talking about a stable release update here?

Title:
  Provide Static quicklist support for  LibreOffice grey's icon

Status in Unity:
  Confirmed
Status in libreoffice package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in unity package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  As default, Ubuntu give an icon of writer (blue), Calc (green), Impress (red) in the launcher of Unity.
  When we do an right clic, we have some options like create a new document, go to the programs or unlock from launcher.

  But the grey icon of LibreOffice have  very poor options:
  -LibreOffice
  -Lock to Launcher
  -Quit

  It will great if could use this icon for all LibreOffice's
  applications.

  I found a how-to  in french documentation:
  http://doc.ubuntu-fr.org/libreoffice#ajouter_des_raccourcis_d_acces_au_menu_libreoffice
  I try give you some translation:
  In terminal write this line
  sudo gedit /usr/share/applications/libreoffice-startcenter.desktop

  And , copy this line at the end of this file:

  X-Ayatana-Desktop-Shortcuts=Writer;Impress;Draw;Math;Calc

  [Writer Shortcut Group]
  Name=Text Document
  Exec=libreoffice -writer %U
  TargetEnvironment=Unity

  [Impress Shortcut Group]
  Name=Presentation
  Exec=libreoffice -impress %U
  TargetEnvironment=Unity

  [Draw Shortcut Group]
  Name=Formula
  Exec=libreoffice -math %U
  TargetEnvironment=Unity

  [Math Shortcut Group]
  Name=Drawing
  Exec=libreoffice -draw %U
  TargetEnvironment=Unity

  [Calc Shortcut Group]
  Name=Spreadsheet
  Exec=libreoffice -calc %U
  TargetEnvironment=Unity

  After, restart your session.

  I try it and it's work in Ubuntu 12.04.
