There is a potential workaround which requires the adminstrator (in most
cases, this is the main user of the Mac anyway), to specifically grant
full disk access to the LibreOffice app bundle, via :

System Preferences > Security and Confidentiality > Allow Full Disk
Access > then add the LibreOffice app to the list.

Obviously, most users will be loathe to actually do this as it
specifically removes the protections around the jailed/containered
"secure" application environment that Apple expects users (and
application providers) to abide by.

As to whether something is being considered from a coding point of view
to resolve the problem, I have no idea.
