That's really an implementation issue for application developers (e.g.

By 'document parts' carrying thier metadata do you includein this definition
text fragments as well ? ie a quotation copied for a document.

Yes.

It's worth noting, however, that this specific functionality (copying text fragments and keeping citation data) would likely not be happening between ODF based documents, but rather from PDF (say journal articles) source.

So there'd have to be some agreement on interoperability between Adobe and the TC. It's worth noting, however, that Adobe initiated the metadata discussion for precisely this reason. There is some concern about the technical details of Adobe's solution though.
