Public bug reported:
(this was initially reported on the forum:
https://forum.snapcraft.io/t/libreoffice-6-0-3-not-so-stable/5032)
When trying to save a file under $HOME (not a subdirectory), the user is
presented with an error dialog:
--- Error ---
Error saving the document Untitled 1:
Object not accessible.
The object cannot be accessed
due to insufficient user rights.
[OK]
This is because libreoffice tries to create a lock file of the form:
"$HOME/.~lock.Untitled 1.odt", and the home interface doesn't allow
writing hidden files (those with a filename that starts with a dot)
under $HOME.
