<pre>We have a similar discussion for Impress (<a class="bz_bug_link
bz_status_NEW "
title="NEW - Paste structured text without format but with styles"
href="show_bug.cgi?id=124764">bug 124764</a>) where it's not so clear
which master slide should be used when copying a slide. The same is true in
Writer: you may want to override the existing style, eg. Heading, with what you
paste but similarly you want to keep the target's style (see <a class="bz_bug_link
bz_status_NEW "
title="NEW - Pasting text at the beginning of a style changes the style to that of the pasted text"
href="show_bug.cgi?id=98381">bug 98381</a>).
Ideally we have options in paste special, a) override target styles, b)
override source styles, and c) add new styles. H1s (Heading 1 from source) with
serif font pasted in H1t with sans serif makes a) H1 = serif (changing
everything in this document that relates to H1), b) changes the source from
serif to sans when pasted, and c) creates a "Heading 1_1". Today we do a) when
the document is new and b) if it contains content.
An elaborated UI blocks the workflow and wouldn't be not a good option in my
opinion. Another bad alternative is to have an undo stack (paste does insert
text then apply style then direct formatting, or the like)- also not a good
solution as very intransparent to the user.</pre>
