--- Comment #4 from Jim DeLaHunt <from+documentfoundation at jdlh.com> ---
I now have a simplified test case document and Steps to Reproduce.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open attached "Test case simplified from real life.odt" document in LO
Writer.
2. Scroll to the table. This table has a header row and one content row.
3. Create a new empty Calc spreadsheet.
4. In any two side-by-side cells, type "new1" and "new2" (e.g. I use A1:B1)
5. Select these two cells. 
6. Edit… Copy
7. Close the Calc spreadsheet. No need to save it.
8. Switch to Writer window.
9. Click pointer before the first character of first cell of the content row of
the table.
10. Edit… Paste.

Actual Results:
Writer hangs, in what appears to be an infinite loop.
The pointer flickers back and forth between an arrow and an hourglass icon.
The window contents flicker back and forth between the pasted new cells
embedded within the first cell of the existing table, and the new calls
replacing the entire existing row of the table.
In macOS Activity Monitor, LibreOffice is running at approximately to
98.5-99.6% of one CPU.
(Did not sampling application process using macOS Activity Monitor.)

Expected Results:
Data from clipboard replaces the existing content row of the table. LibreOffice
UI becomes responsive within 1.0 seconds.

Negative test case: perform the same Steps to Reproduce, but use the attached
"Test case made new.odt" document instead "Test case simplified from real
life.odt". In this case the bug does not appear. The Actual Results match the
Expected Results.
