I've also reproduced this in a fresh 8.10 install in VirtualBox, again
using Metacity.
I tried your workaround in 8.04 using Compiz instead of Metacity. With
legacy fullscreen mode disabled, the problem is not reproduceable using
Compiz. With legacy fullscreen mode enabled, the problem is present
I personally can't reproduce the problem
Maybe the following workaround helps ? Could people who experience the
problem try it and say whether the workaround works or not
Install the "Advanced desktop effects settings" package (Compiz desktop
effects control panel), you can just go to add/remove

3. Press Ctrl+Shift+J to go to fullscreen
4. Press Crtl+Q to quit
5. Open the same document again
At this point, OpenOffice will always start
