The reporter suggests Firefox as the source of the problem. This seems to be false because if you drag and drop selected text from Firefox into Gedit or even into Abiword no source code is shown. Drag and Drop from Firefox into LibreOffice on Windows works so it seems to be a linux specific bug in Libreoffice. I could reproduce this behaviour also in other distributions when drag and drop Website-text into *any* LibreOffice component. I change the target to LibreOffice.

Instead, it pastes over the HTML source, which probably isn't what most people want. Not sure if this has been reported before (the closest I could find was a bug report on dragging and dropping images), but this is a nuisance because it's causing one of Firefox's most useful features to break.
