@Christopher: I do not agree with your comment/ status change.

This bug is not about copying text-only into LibreOffice  but about
LibreOffice showing the *sourcecode* of dragged text from a Website. If
I select Text on a Website, then Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V in LibreOffice the
behaviour is as expected.

This bug has a wider affection when it comes to the use of the research
tool Zotero [1]. When you try to drag and drop citations into a
LibreOffice document you get the citations with the source code into the
document [2,3].

This bug exists only in the Linux-Versions of LibreOffice.

Title:
  Drag and Drop from Firefox to LibreOffice pastes HTML source

Status in “libreoffice” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid
Status in “openoffice.org” package in Ubuntu:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: firefox

  When you select text in Firefox and drag it over to an Openoffice
  writer window, one would expect the formatted text to be pasted over
  (like you do when you do a straight copy-paste). Instead, it pastes
  over the HTML source, which probably isn't what most people want.

  Not sure if this has been reported before (the closest I could find
  was a bug report on dragging and dropping images), but this is a
  nuisance because it's causing one of Firefox's most useful features to
  break.
