Title:
  LibreOffice windows and dialogs do not receive focus on startup (KDE,
  Razorqt)

Status in “kde-workspace” package in Ubuntu:
  Unknown

Bug description:
  I hope I've got the correct package to log this against.

  Symptom:
  LibreOffice dialogs (such as password prompts, plaintext/csv imports etc) do not receive WM focus if a LibreOffice app is running and minimised.
  This causes a fairly severe usability issue, where it seems like LibreOffice has crashed, since nothing seems to happen when you click (and continue to click) to open a file that requires user action on a dialog.

  I've replicated the issue in KDE and RazorQT which is why I'm logging
  it against this qt-x11 package.

  It affects 12.04 and 14.04 (tested, I imagine there are more)

  The issue does not occur in Unity or Gnome.

  I made two videos - based on:

  Ubuntu 12.04, bog standard install. Add kde via:
    sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop

  add this ppa: https://launchpad.net/~libreoffice/+archive/ubuntu/libreoffice-4-3 
  upgrade all libreoffice packages to 4.3.0.4:
    sudo apt-get install $(dpkg -l | grep libreoffice | awk '{print $2}')

  Video 1: Unity Desktop, expected (correct) behaviour

  Video 2: Logged out of Unity, logged into KDE Desktop - unexpected behaviour, as described by this bug:
