2. Conversely, if I sign the Oracle Contributor Agreement and
submit code (and it gets accepted, otherwise the copyright reverts

would that cause problems for LibreOffice (because Oracle now

Yes. Actually that's what we do when we "pull" the OOo codebase over
to us.
... there is a slight difference: Whatever we pull from OOo is
currently LGPLv3 (no "or later"), while direct contributions can also
carry additional licenses. It is currently recommended to contribute
under "LGPLv3 (or later)/MPL".
Best Regards,
Bjoern
