I'm not sure if replacing the selected object is the best possible thing. It is 
surely OK while writing some 
text. But imagine a case where you want to draw several red circles with some 
text. First you create one 
circle - create it in the right dimensions, place some text in, select the 
color and then
1) Ctrl+C
2) Ctrl+V
3) grab by mouse and move to desired position
4) Ctrl+V
5) grab by mouse and move to desired position
6) goto 3

But this does not work and instead you have to do

1) Ctrl+C
2) deselect current circle
3) Ctrl+V
4) grab by mouse and move to desired position
5) deselect current circle
6) Ctrl+V
7) grab by mouse and move to desired position
8) deselect current circle
7) goto 3

Please try this yourself and see what current behavior is not very
intuitive - my girlfriend wasn't able to figure that she need to use the
second algorithm and the was really mad after creating 20 red circles :-)
And she works quite OK  with computers. Imagine someone even less skilled.

BTW: Verified on OOo 2.1, 2.2, 2.3 on MacOSX, 2.3 on Windows
