Would definitely be against such a large size like you have in your mockup, but a smaller one like MSO[1] does make sense only when pasting with Ctrl+V, as it would bring attention to other pasting options for beginners, though dont forget some people will be annoyed by it[2].

Most novice users will paste as is and change it to their liking, while others who dont want the default pasting will likely paste unformatted text and then change it to how they like it. > While I agree that having the option of several choices is good (though I'm > not convinced all of them make a lot of sense in this particular example), > having a basic dialog with the most meaningful choices that are easy to > interpret would be extremely helpful, with the option to switch to the > current, "expert" dialog.

True. > Rather believe we are limited in doing this cross platform to pop-up > dialogs, or tooltip like widgets. Could be implemented as a floating toolbar with a single button in it, but devs would have to see what is feasible. > I really see no reason to waste dev effort to implement such. Personally I agree with you and believe this should be closed as WONTFIX, but if a dev wants to take it on, we shouldnt stop them from doing it, as it does have some benefit for new users.</pre> </div> <div id="referenced"> <hr style="border: 1px dashed #969696"> Referenced Bugs: <ul> <li> [<a class="bz_bug_link bz_status_NEW " title="NEW - [META] Paste special bugs and enhancements" href="https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=108479">Bug 108479</a>] [META] Paste special bugs and enhancements </li> </ul> </div> <hr> You are receiving this mail because: <ul> <li>You are the assignee for the bug.</li> </ul> </body> </html>
