--- Comment #7 from Mike Kaganski <mikekaganski at hotmail.com> ---
This dialog is related to pasting as HTML.
Steps:
1. Select any word in konsole, right-click it, and choose "Copy".
2. In Calc, select any cell (do not enter cell edit mode), and use Edit->Paste
Special->Paste Special
=> three options are shown: HTML, Unformatted text, and Use text import dialog.

Using "HTML", the dialog from attachment 166360 appears. Using "Unformatted
text", no dialog is shown. With "Use text import dialog", a CSV dialog is
shown.

When several clipboard formats are available in the clipboard, LibreOffice
tries to use the richest available -> naturally chooses HTML. The question is,
why is the dialog needed here in HTML import at all, even if HTML in clipboard
doesn't contain the language information. The number recognition is not an
issue for single-line unformatted text paste, so why should it be an issue for
HTML (at least single-line)?
