<pre>We discussed the topic in the design meeting. While the need is clear for
footnotes and endnotes (<a class="bz_bug_link
bz_status_NEW "
title="NEW - Styled source text copied to footnote should use footnote's paragraph style"
href="show_bug.cgi?id=100018">bug 100018</a>), we have a well-known workflow in general.
What we can do is:
a) Keep the source PS not only for empty target paragraphs but also ignore all
white-space: when pasting somewhere in the middle of a paragraph it is very
unlikely that the source PS should be applied, so just ignoring white-space
might solve the actual problem
b) Introduce a new paste special option (or a new UNO command in order to
assign a shortcut) that pastes without paragraph style but not unformatted:
with this option the user can decide whether the target PS is overridden or
not; the current behavior of paste and paste special wouldn't change
c) Enhance the PS attributes by a flag "[ ] Override style on paste" that
allows to define individually whether or not pasting formatted clipboard
content should change the target PS; this solution could be used for Footnotes
as requested in <a class="bz_bug_link
