--- Comment #2 from Olivier Tilloy <olivier.tilloy at canonical.com> ---
I'm removing the duplicate status: bug 118593 is about loading xmlsecurity at
startup even when not needed, whereas this one is a concern about what
xmlsecurity does to access firefox's certificates DB.

I'm not a security expert but this looks like a valid concern to me, especially
since libreoffice requests write mode to cert8.db and key3.db. Is this really
needed? Is there a design doc that explains why?
