<span class="quote">> Pasting as Link doesn't create a DDE link but a normal external reference,

It seems to work in master copying from (1) Writer to Writer and (2) Calc to
Writer.

<span class="quote">> A DDE link would be =DDE("soffice","/path/to/file.ods","Sheet1.A1") for example.</span >

(1) looks as 
<text:section text:style-name="Sect1" text:name="soffice2"
text:protected="true"><office:dde-source office:dde-application="soffice"
office:dde-topic="/<path>/link-from.odt"
office:dde-item="__DdeLink__498_4036932267"
office:automatic-update="true"/><text:p text:style-name="P4">Link Source
Document</text:p><text:p text:style-name="P3"><text:span
text:style-name="T3">Text body
UPDATED</text:span></text:p></text:section><text:p text:style-name="Standard">
<text:bookmark text:name="__DdeLink__498_40369322671"/><text:bookmark
text:name="__DdeLink__498_40369322673"/><text:bookmark
text:name="__DdeLink__498_40369322672"/><text:bookmark
text:name="__DdeLink__498_4036932267"/></text:p></office:text>

(2) looks as
<table:table table:name="Table1" table:style-name="Table1"><office:dde-source
office:name="soffice1" office:dde-application="soffice"
office:dde-item="/<path>/testLINK.ods" office:dde-topic="&apos;Server -
Mail&apos;.A64:C64" office:automatic-update="true"/>

NB Not disputing that DDE is deprecated and soffice only, of course.</pre>
