Argh, apparently apport-collect and LP have incompatible notions of
whether bugs relate to source or binary packages (bug 998936).
Anyway, I was wrong. Reading through the comments in bug 974900, I see
that bug is tracking my problem too.

Title:
menus appear on wrong monitor
Status in “libreoffice” package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
Background:
I have 3 monitors (in a left/middle/right configuration) and an NVIDIA
Quadro NVS 450. This means I have to use Xinerama, which means Unity
falls back to Unity 2D. Most programs work fine.
Problem:
LibreOffice apps (like Calc and Writer) appear to have several bugs in
their menu implementation:
1. The menus are per-window, instead of being at the top of the screen
in the panel like other apps. This is fine with me, and *not* the
topic of this bug report. Presumably if global menus become a
configurable option, the mode in which libreoffice menus are currently
operating will be expected to work correctly. I mention it only for
completeness.
2. When a window is on the middle or right monitor, the menus open in
the wrong position. For windows on the middle monitor, the menus open
on the right monitor. For menus on the right monitor, the menus open
on the correct monitor but align to the right of the menu item text.
See the attached screenshots for clarification.
LibreOffice apps are the only ones I've seen that exhibit this
behavior.
Note that this bug is similar to bug 974900, but is not the same. In
that case, the menus are incorrectly right aligned (like in my right
monitor case), but they span monitors. In my case, the menu will shift
right a bit to avoid spilling onto the middle monitor.
Let me know if there is additional detail I can provide.
