--- Comment #2 from Eike Rathke <erack at redhat.com> ---
The request is to handle Paste (Ctrl+V) in the Input Line (Formula Bar) same as
Paste Special (Shift+Ctrl+V) Unformatted, preserving newlines; one could indeed
expect that a standard Paste preserves as much formatting as possible, at least
as much as Paste Special Unformatted.

However, pasting text is quite intertwined as the mentioned bug 113571
(specifically https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=113571#c4)
and bug 119928 (specifically
https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=119928#c17) indicate, and
the behaviour that different targets (input line, in cell, over cell) for the
same source may and should behave differently with multiple cells (thus
multi-line unformatted text) doesn't make it easier. Maybe someone wants to
deeply investigate..
