great!

I think that https://api.libreoffice.org/docs/install.html uses the phrase "user 
installation" to refer to the non-developer variant of the application in the 
package repository.

i'm not sure that is true, and have taken a slightly different approach with https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/c/core/+/86987

For an experienced Linux developer this may clear, but I think many people would be 
helped if this would be explained a bit more. (Something like: "Install the 
developer's package of LibreOffice that is present in the repository of your Linux 
distribution, or install LibreOffice manually from ... . Examples of developer's packages 
on several distro's are: Ubuntu: libreoffice-dev; Fedora: libreoffice-sdk, etc.")

there is already an explanation of that right at the top of that page.
