Does that also help for the "-gtk3 makes it slow in xfce" bug (#836531)?
Then those indeed are the same one and should be merged.

Upstream says:

10:51 <@caolan> might be the same thing as
                https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1373933 which I'm
                looking at right now
10:52 < IZBot> bug 1373933: Fedora-['libreoffice'] unspecified/unspecified NEW
               object selection and edit freezes libreoffice for several seconds
10:52 < _rene_> 17:57 < _rene_> caolan: remember on how I asked about Gtk
                3.21.x?  http://bugs.debian.org/837356...
10:52 <@caolan> I'd say its the same thing, especially cause of "Downgrading
                Gtk3 to 3.20.9-1 fix it"
10:52 <@caolan> I'm bisecting gtk itself at the moment
10:53 < _rene_> yeah, sounds like it afte reading the rhbz bug
