OK, so you talk about the "More Options..." item which opens the Paste Special
dialog? That's indeed not useful to have in the context menu, as currently it
only presents formatted vs unformatted choice, and the context menu already has
paste and paste as unformatted items. But we might still consider keeping
"paste as unformatted", and move it to the top level of the menu, below the
ordinary paste (instead of a paste special sub menu). I think that such a
highly useful function deserves to be in the context menu. (And in the future,
if we get more formats, we could change it back to a sub menu. In fact, when
copying from a shape, a comment, or a cell, the clipboard gets 2 formatted
options which can be pasted into shapes: ODF flat XML, and RTF. We can expose
both in the dialog, but I don't know how useful it will be. In the future, it
will be nice to also have HTML there, so it will be possible to e.g. copy
formatted text from a browser. We have some code for that in place, but it
seems to need more work.)
