You'll most likely get better results if you save your LibreOffice file as a .docx file and convert it with Calibre to an .epub file.
Or, if you are intending to polish the epub in Sigil anyway, why not just save the LibreOffice file as an .odt file and then import it to Sigil with your ODTimport plugin? I do this all the time for epub2. (And thank you again for that plugin!) I've not tried it for epub3, so I don't know how good the conversion is in that case. I notice you say there've been improvements in the epub3 conversion, in the latest writer2LaTex.jar beta (ver 1.6 beta). So maybe it left something to be desired, previously.

And even if you don't plan to edit in Sigil, you could still do the (saved) .odt -> epub conversion with one command from the command line using Writer2LaTex.jar stand-alone. All the above assuming you have java installed, of course.
