Gives a more responsive UI, closes a number of races, and helps us to make better decisions, more quickly on whether to save.

LibreOffice Binary
Code for the LibreOffice main binary (soffice) resides here. The soffice_main
function for the soffice binary can be found here.
Stable Interface
Some of the artifacts built here are part of a LibreOffice installation set's stable interface, which (programmatic) clients can depend on. Among them are:
soffice
In the program directory (program/ on Linux and Windows, Contents/MacOS/
on macOS).
unoinfo
In the program directory (program/ on Linux and Windows, Contents/MacOS/
on macOS).
When called with a sole argument of c++, it prints to stdout an absolute
pathname denoting the directory where the public URE libraries are found.
When called with a sole argument of java, it prints to stdout a marker
character (either an ASCII '0' or '1') followed by a sequence of zero or more
absolute pathnames denoting jars or directories that need to be included in a
class loader's search locations.
If the marker character is '0' (on Linux and macOS), the pathnames are encoded as bytes, and any two pathnames in the sequence are separated from each other by NUL bytes.
If the marker character is '1' (on Windows), the pathnames are encoded as
UTF-16-LE two-byte code units, and any two pathnames in the sequence are
separated from each other by two-byte NUL code units.
