--- Comment #2 from Adalbert Hanßen <adalbert.hanssen at gmx.de> ---
In order to reproduce the bug, one needs a fairly big odt document. I don‘t
want to clutter the space of the bugzilla with such a sample, so let‘s misuse a
publicly available one.
I have chosen this nice manual for my test (saying to its authors “excuse me
for misusing your nice work just as test material”!):
https://documentation.libreoffice.org/assets/Uploads/Documentation/en/GS6.0/GS60-GettingStartedLO.odt
It is a 394 pages document. It is already big enough to show the bug.
Meanwhile I have found that the bug even shows up when pasting a fairly small
txt-file. It is not necessary to use a large tar.gz file which really is
nonsense to paste into an odt document!
So just mark all lines in this bug report, copy them to the clipboard and paste
and store them to some text file Sample.txt.
Now click your file Sample.txt in your file browser and click on it. Then pres
Ctl+C to copy the file location to the clipboard.
Then open the aforementioned GS60-GettingStartedLO.odt and go after the
headline „Who is this book for?” and before the word “Anyone” on page 10.
Then “inadvertently” do Ctl-V there (supposing you actually would like to paste
a hyperlink to that file but you did wrong: you should have done Shift+Ctl+V to
paste special rather the file itself. You will see a screen like the one in my
original post. You detect your error and you want to stop pasting the file and
click on “Cancel”. The button gets pressed but nothing else happens. 
I found no other way than to end LibreOfficeWriter by the x button on its right
top and then ignoring the message after some seconds that LibreOffice seems to
be busy but does not respond or to kill it by the task manager. 
I would expect to be able to get out of that situation by either “Cancel” or by
“Reset”.
