Well...

I decided to screen-record all versions since 5.4 (just *before* the
Ctrl+Shift+Alt+V vas introduced [1]), through 6.0 till 7.0 (I decided to skip
7.1 and 7.2, since those were confirmed to have the described behavior in
comment 1). Recording 5.4 was to illustrate that pasting plain text was
behaving this way was already prior to introducing the shortcut. In all other
versions, I used the mentioned shortcut for pasting (after demonstrating that
it was assigned). All the versions were the first releases in the branch (after
which, no functional change happened, only bugfix releases followed).

The release schedule is at https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/ReleasePlan (6.3
- 7.3), and https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/ReleasePlan/Archive (6.2 and
earlier), so you can check the dates of the releases.

For completeness, I also checked the behavior of OOo 3.2.0, as well as AOO
4.1.0 (using the same procedure, just using the paste button's drop down menu).
Naturally, the result was the same - CSV dialog appeared.

So I still think I was correct stating that it was ~forever this way; I would
be curious to learn which specific version behaved differently.
