Title:
  Individual LibreOffice apps do not include GTK support by default

Status in libreoffice package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  This is a packaging quirk that I've encountered in elementaryOS, but
  I've verified that it also affects the new minimal installation in
  Ubuntu 18.04.

  When I install LibreOffice Calc or Writer from GNOME Software, they do
  not automatically install the `libreoffice-gnome` package and look
  completely out of place in the surrounding GTK desktop.

  There are two workarounds: I can either install the `libreoffice-
  gnome` package manually, or I can install the full LibreOffice
  package, which includes `libreoffice-gnome` in its Recommends. Neither
  of these options is intuitive for me as a user; I only searched for
  "Excel" in GNOME Software and installed Calc because it looked
  familiar.

  Proposed fix, without knowing much about package dependencies: Can't
  the individual LibreOffice apps include `libreoffice-gnome
  |libreoffice-kde4` in their Recommends as well?
