LibreOffice contains a Python 3 scripting engine.
Just for the fun, I take a look with Writer.
It simply fails on a valid string (as I expected).
However, LibreOffice does not crash (or may not crash).
I do no know how these "errors" are intercepted.
Unfortunately, that's not the case in Python GUI wrappers.
