--- Comment #9 from Dale Eltoft <[email protected]> ---
I began with a Calc spreadsheet having text data in some cells and numbers in
others.
I opened the Microsoft Notepad app and typed in a string of text on one line
and a number on another.
I selected the text from Notepad, copied it to the clipboard and pasted it into
a Calc cell already containing text. 
There was no warning.
I did the same with the number into a cell with a number and again no warning.

I repeated these steps using a Writer document as the source of the clipboard
data.
There was no warning.

Next I selected a Calc cell containing text. Then going to the Input line where
the text was also displayed, I selected one word from the sentence and copied
it to the clipboard using the keyboard shortcut. Then I clicked the red X to
clear the Input Line update. Next I selected another cell containing text and
pasted into it.
Again no warning.

It seems that the warning "You are pasting data into cells that already contain
data." only shows up if the data being pasted is copied to the clipboard from
one or more whole cells selected from an active Calc spreadsheet.

To be clear from my experiments I believe that data pasted into one or more
cells already containing data from any source other than whole cells copied
from a currently active open Calc sheet does not provide an overlay warning.
