> looks very much like a duplicate of bug 51850.
The difference is that bug 51850 was directed at external sources, in
particular images copied from webpages, which is why I opened this ticket for
"internal" sources (images in the same document or images copied from one
document to another). Of course, if the same underlying code is involved, then
mark this one as DUP and revise the bug summary for bug 51850 to highlight the
general problem.

@Heiko - at present, the online help of AutoCaption gives no indication about
"limitations" or "special conditions".  Usually online help aims to document
"expected behavior" (without mentioning any bugs).  As noted in the OP, maybe
users should only expect AutoCaption to work with "Insert - Image" (which is
what the help page says -- but it could probably be emphasized more
explicitly).

More generally, if this limitation ("must use Insert - Image) is going to be
the intention. Then this would also give a WF to bug 51850, because external
sources must be saved first, and then inserted.  (I am not advocating for this
solution -- just seeking some improvement in the documentation of the current
situation).
