If all dialogs in LibreOffice would behave that way, then yes. But in
this case (especially when having only two buttons, e.g. a missing
"Cancel" button), we should comply to the generic "misbehavior" in
LibreOffice.

This behavior might be switched once we can do this for all dialogs in
LibreOffice having a horizontal button layout.

Thanks for the reminder, but Josh already contacted us very early and
fed us with helpful screenshots and good thoughts :-)

Cheers,
