Confirming, but only when launched from OSX Dock. As far as I can remember, launching LO modules from the Dock has behaved like this for quite a while.

Sorry, what window exactly do you mean with the "new document window" that doesn't get focus? The "Database Wizard" window?
And Alex, isn't your case totally different? In the original comment, he already has LibreOffice running, and then chooses File > New > Database , right? But your Dock case is different.
STR (as far I can tell) 1. Open - for example - a Writer Document 2. File > create new > database -> grey base screen shows up. the wizard Is hidden behind it.

Once we do have a window, then reinit interaction handler to have that window as the parent for any further dialogs. Bisected with: bibisect-linux64-6.0 Adding Cc: to Caolán McNamara
*** Bug 116455 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
The blank window is the frame which will be filled with the database. New document frame are now shown early so that any import warning dialogs can use it as a parent to not lock unrelated windows. The wizard is using the wrong parent dialog. Two options are to a) make the wizard use the new frame as its parent so its modal to that window. b) make the new frame hidden until the database wizard is complete
