Hi, Heiko,

Hopefully I have explained the rationale for the two feature requests properly.

Have written a fair amount of code, but never really dug into the internals of
Uno, so to me it's not clear why it would be a "can of worms" to at least add
another choice to the top-level Paste Special context menu.  However, I defer
to your greater knowledge.

(My programming hat says it sounds like the problem might be that the context
menu is the equivelant of a Star Office object, something compiled, so you can
only call it, rather than having access to the source code so you could
actually change it; then again, would have to dig further into the LO source to
see if I'm barking up the wrong tree.)

However, given that it's off the table to add anything to the top-level "Paste
Special" portion of the context menu, to add the "missing" paste special
options to Customize so one could make shortcuts of them (as exists with the
three existing "Paste Only" choices), or to add the brand-new Paste Column
Widths functionality, I guess there's not really anything else to be
considered.

In any event, thanks for taking the time to examine these two feature requests!
