--- Comment #1 from V Stuart Foote <[email protected]> ---
LibreOffice already provides the Paste Special -> Unformatted Text that will
remove what is essentially formatting as held on clipboard in the text being
pasted from os/DE clipboard.

Paste as Unformatted Text removes any gray field shading boxes (alternatively
the toggle <Ctrl>+F8 will suppress, though bug 58434 is open to move to
<Ctrl>+F10 NPC toggle).

It just depends on how much else of the formatting/style of the copied text you
need to retain.

If you need more, the Paste Special -> More... dialog will offer any additional
formats your system clipboard is reporting to LibreOffice. A few clipboard
formats won't be recognized (depending on the source application and the LO
module in use) and the handling of the pasted content will depend on content of
the clipboard format and the LO filter implementation handling of that content.

Nothing to be fixed here, LO *consumes* what is present on the os/DE clipboard.
