--- Comment #3 from Mike Kaganski <mikekaganski at hotmail.com> ---
Additional info:

LO already implements DND documents into its main window (to open them); images
into documents (to insert them). So much of functionality is already there.

For *some* dragged objects, Word creates an OLE object of type/progId
"Package". LibreOffice includes own cross-platform implementation for handling
(unpacking) that object type: see tdf#104065.

Based on that, having file names from DnD, it looks reasonably doable to
implement insertion of such objects in a platform-independent way.
