====================================================================

When a LO window is already open, starting LO again flashes up the existing
window, instead of opening a new one. This is particularly annoying when
working with multiple desktops.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open some document in LibreOffice.
2. [Optional: switch to a different desktop.]
3. Start LibreOffice.
Actual Results:  
Starting LO from an icon, the bouncy LibreOffice icon appears, along with a
"loading" panel in the Task Manager bar, but nothing else happens. Starting LO
from konsole (command "libreoffice"), the Task Manager flashes up the existing
window.

Expected Results:  
A new LibreOffice window should open. This would be consistent with the
behaviour of (for example) Firefox.

Notice that the problem does not appear when starting Calc, or Writer, etc. --
only when starting LibreOffice.
