Calc (top) vs. Excel (bottom)

While we provide much more and better functionality with paste special the line
break is indeed missing. We apparently understand it as part of the formatting
while Excel preserves it. However, I see no way to copy the cell content with
formatting in Excel, which makes it a poor comparison.

For consistency we should either make F2 and FB (formula bar) behave similarly
and paste with all formatting per Ctrl+V or do exactly the current behavior and
clear the new-line along with other attributes. But has there been any request
to do so? "Make it available" is to optionally allow pasting unformatted.
