I have added this:
If you have text in the clipboard, which can be interpreted as a MathML segment
with math as root element, or if you have a clipboard content of MIME type
"application/mathml+xml" then you can import the content in module LibreOffice
Math. Find the item in menu Tools in the Equation Editor module.

As LibreOffice cannot natively render MathML, the import is transformed to
StarMath. That has some known problems.

--------------

Your description is still not clear. Perhaps you need to separate it into
different issues. I guess you have the following wishes; correct me, where I'm
wrong:

(1) If the clipboard content has suitable MathML, then LibreOffice should offer
"paste-special" and insert a formula immediately.
[That has a performance problem, because you can only know, whether the content
can be transformed, when you try to transform it.]

(2) If you are in formula editing mode and the clipboard content has suitable
MathML, than allow to paste it.
[That have I done, see above. For MathML the parser and a piece of code, that
transforms MathML to StarMath already exists for file import and 'only' need to
be used for clipboard too. MathML is the language, which is specified for
Formulas in OpenDocument.]

(3) LibreOffice should offer to import clipboard content, which is actually Tex
or Latex.

(4) Allow to write Tex or Latex and transform it on demand into StarMath.

But I do not see, what is the role of MathJax in all this.

I cannot play the video on web.archive.org.
