It seems to me this is a problem. I used OOo to write a review
for Amazon, then pasted it there. Today I discovered that all the
titles I had referenced were not capitalized. Further experiment
shows that using Title Case to capitalize is not reflected when
pasting into either a text editor or an html form in Firefox.

I think I know why it works this way - it must rely on markup,
but I haven't exhaustively thought through the logic of why it
should be this way. Testing MSWord97, I see that its Title Case
is hard-coded into the text and is carried with it when pasting
out of the originating app.

It seems to me that hard-coding is the way to go on this.
Capitalization is something that shouldn't change depending on
which app you're working in. It should follow the text and be
changed only on purpose, and not be as transient as, say, font
color, when moving to a plain text editor.
