Yes, that works, but here is some perspective on why I created this issue:

As a technical user, I know all the different paste commands and how to
customize the menus and toolbars as well. What I was really trying to encourage
to be addressed is not to find a solution for "me" but to make things easier
for users who are confused by this not meeting expectations, especially users
coming from an Excel background or doing simple data entry who just want to
"Paste" (Ctrl+V) and have the "right" thing happen. In data entry scenarios,
there is a lot of need to paste without formatting. Some users just want to
focus on data entry and not learn about idiosyncrasies compared to Excel.

(I realize this doesn't have an easy answer, Calc seems to be doing the "right"
while Excel is doing something that happens to be very convenient for a typical
user who probably has little need for mixed formatting within the text of the
same cell.)
