thanks!

There seems to have been a moment (see my previous comment) that I had the
same.

OK, that makes is more clear. So, if in the example of comment 3, I do the
following
 copy A1:B1
 select A2:B4
indeed, paste special is available.

Still, the questioin remains, why has the behavious for the case as described
in this bug changed compared to LibreOffice 3.4.x , and is that change really
necessary, or a regression (as indicated in the field Keywords).
