Yeah, looks like <http://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/core/commit/?id=b1cf810a8e7342ad5d518528fd58266daf6e90ec> "LibreOffice branding: make desktop integration work (fix2)" dropped the /usr/bin/soffice symlink from the upstream LO packages, for reasons that escape me---maybe it was just ignorance or an oversight.

valid?

The concerns about applications using the interface I described (not sure what you mean with "legacy," though) still hold.
