One general problem with migration was a bug in configmgr code as described in <https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=46074> "FILEOPEN: No Recent Documents...," hitting many users recently because (a) on Linux, moving the user installation from ~/.libreoffice/3 to ~/.config/libreoffice/3 for LO 3.5.0 caused migration for all users coming from a previous < 3.5.0, and (b) on Mac OS X and Windows, a bug caused "migration" of the existing user installation onto itself to happen on every program start (cf. <http://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/core/commit/?h=libreoffice-3-5-1&id=76e0d695a41326a5583dbc9702e0ce3b8219b514> "Move migrateSettingsIfNecessary into create_user_install").

That is, I would expect the number of problems with migration to go down significantly again in the near future (once all people who have been hit by the above have cleared their current user installation, see <https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=46074#c32>).
