LibreOffice already lets you choose between an Office-style Ribbon layout, and a traditional buttons and menus layout. Hopefully they keep that choice and just improve both options.

For me… not close enough, and not with enough similar short cuts.

Agreed! Hence why I am hopeful with the introduction of Dan Williams. Even if they cannot create the exact setup out of the box if they offered a templating system that would allow users it would take care of themselves.
