--- Comment #4 from Stéphane Guillou (stragu) <stephane.guillou at libreoffice.org> ---
So there is at least two different requests here:

A. (option to) paste text with tabulations understood as document structure in
Outline mode (i.e. non-tabulated is slide heading, tabulated is content in
slide)

B. Pasted tabulated plain text is automatically converted to bulleted list in
slide contents.

Bug reports / enhancement requests should only describe one issue or feature.

My personal opinion is that (A) contains too many assumptions on what the users
desires when pasting such text in the Outline view, and (B) is more realistic
but still again assumes a lot: what if the user does not want bullets? What if
the user wants a numbered list instead?

Vicent, please pick one enhancement to focus on, and clarify why you think
these assumptions can be made when pasting such data.

Copying UX/Design team in.

(Also note that for me, the result of 1.2 is different: tabs are kept when
pasted. I tested with:

Version: 25.8.0.0.alpha0+ (X86_64) / LibreOffice Community
Build ID: 62dd6274c71bc840f5c5abcd4b1fa536238aa25d
CPU threads: 8; OS: Linux 6.8; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3
Locale: en-AU (en_AU.UTF-8); UI: en-US
Calc: CL threaded
