Strongly Disagree - RTF or OLE should be default


This enhancement is a bad idea. For several reasons.

1) The other office suites do not use text only as default. Popular suites such
as Word Perfect and MS Office use the rich text format by default.

2) For consistency sake, all apps should behave the same way whenever possible.
Copying from Calc to Writer should be the same as Writer to Calc. Adding this
unnecessary inconsistency will make the UX feel unpolished.

3) The claim that presentations would not want to preserve source formatting is
just not true. While working on company presentations, I have cribbed marking
material in other formats. Most of the time, I have kept the source formatting
as it conforms to our company's standards.
