Great, thanks.

I was (always) referring to pasting unformatted text. If I may say so, it seems
messy – pasted text takes up the current selected language, even if the text is
plain English, or takes up English, even though the text is Greek. If I may use
the forbidden 'W' (MS Word), it has a setting that makes the default paste to
be "unformatted" text, and pasting any unformatted text in a document, Word
seems to recognise the language automatically, without any problem. Is there
such a possibility in LO Writer (perhaps using the Unicode info of each
character?), or should I file a new bug?
