--- Comment #3 from V Stuart Foote <[email protected]> ---
Not sure this is even a valid use case for a Calc sheet--by selecting and
copying multiple objects from a web browser, and then pasting those objects in
bulk into cells in a calc sheet--you are in reality performing multiple actions
on multiple objects (text strings, cells, styles, image links, image
renderings, etc.).

While it might seem like it is a single action, in reality it is that many
actions occur when pasting content into a Calc sheet cell/cells.

It is unreasonable to expect simple Ctrl-Z "undo" to unravel the multiple paste
and formatting actions being performed by that complex copy and paste into a
Calc sheet, and to revert all the actions.

Specifically, the images pasted in that context, and not exposed to "undo", are
actually a processed linked bitmap object.

Additionally, you can see the multiple format changes to cell objects on the
sheet that occur with a paste/paste special in that the row height and column
width, where content was pasted, are not reverted to their pre-paste values
with an "undo".  Just the last "action" of the paste is being reverted--not the
entire range.

The solution--don't do unreasonable things with a Calc sheet.  Copy pasting
complex HTML markup is unreasonable.
