Description of problem:

If Russian xkb layout is active, it's impossible to use keyboard shortcuts like
ctrl-c (copy), ctrl-v (paste) etc. It makes this build of openoffice absolutely
unusable for somebody who was using other office (microsoft) or other build of
openoffice.org for a long time.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

1.9.87-2

How reproducible:

always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start gnome keyboard properties and select Russian layout
2. Start openoffice writer and verify that keyboard produces kyrillic characters.
3. Try to use ctrl-c and ctrl-v for copy and paste text
  
Actual results:

Nothing will happen

Expected results:

Ctrl-c and ctrl-v should work for copy and paste

Additional info:

This bug was not reproduced with openoffice.org build from
http://www.openoffice.org.

Looks like it's not openoffice.org bug, because it works great in KDE. It's
gnome bug, and it's hanging on gnome bugzilla for a long time, see
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=103331

no idea what component shoud be chosen :(

Bug description:
  Keyboard shortcuts are key combinations like Alt+F (usually opens the
  File menu) and Ctrl+O (usually opens the File→Open... dialog box).

  There is an issue with non-latin keyboard layouts that the keys under F or O (for Alt+F and Ctrl+O respectively) would correspond to some other character.
  What should happen then? There is some smart functionality (at least in the GTK+ library) that when we press a shortcut, it will try to make Alt+F or Ctrl+O work, even if the active keyboard layout is not English.

  For this smart functionality to work, it requires us to have as first keyboard layout the English (en) layout. Then, GTK+ will be able to
  check whether the shortcut makes sense for English, and if so, will run it.
  All that even if the active layout is Greek or Russian or something else. 

  This report has over 300 comments and these comments include all sort of corner cases that indeed shortcuts do not work. In general, shortcuts work,
  but in specific cases there are issues that need to be fixed.

  What we need to do, is collect those corner cases and create new
  separate reports.

  Here are the corner cases:

  1. In Dash (in Unity 7), shortcuts like Super+S/W work (for example, Greek, Russian), but they do not work for Super+A/F/M/C/V. 
  Report: <not reported yet>

  2. Java GUI applications on Linux do not support shortcuts in non-latin languages. This is an issue with Java and should be reported there.
  Java GUI apps are not included in any of the Ubuntu ISOs. 
  Report: <not reported yet>

  3. Shortcuts that use Ctrl on LibreOffice work for several languages (like Greek, Russian), but has been reported not to work on Hebrew.
  This should be a separate bug report specific to Hebrew and other languages affected in the same way.
  Report: <not reported yet>
