--- Comment #2 from Tor Lillqvist <tml at iki.fi> ---
Well, adding or editing files inside the app bundle is definitely wrong. If
that works, it means that the OS apparently doesn't check the integrity of an
app bundle as well as it should. I would expect and hope that doing
modifications inside the app bundle would break its digital signature.

Anyway, I am not sure why this would be a macOS-only enhancement request. Can
the required functionality not be achieved on other platforms either by just
editing files in the user profile? Ah, but I see, is the problem, that you want
to do it for all users, perhaps for once who haven't necessarily even run
LibreOffice yet on a machine, not just yourself? It is quite possible that
there is no sane way to do that on any platform. (Where with "sane" I mean
having some place outside the app installation ("app bundle" on macOS) for such
modifications.)
