Suppose LibreOffice is configured so that it can only open files in ~/Documents. Now suppose LibreOffice is trojaned, perhaps via a macro virus. It could open and trash every file in ~/Documents.
Plain destruction is not a real problem. It is easily noticed and simply fixed (use your backup). The problem is when it reads all your ~/Documents/* and sends them to someone else in the Internet so that later you can get tricked by social engineering that is very specifically made for you.
