            Bug ID: 149930
           Summary: Pasting multiple lines into a Writer table should
                    paste across rows, like Calc
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 7.3.4.2 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
          Assignee: [email protected]
          Reporter: [email protected]

Description:
I often need to paste multiple lines of text into multiple rows of cells in a
Writer table. Currently, in order to do so, I open Calc, paste there (which
brings up a dialog that lets me split the paste across multiple rows), and then
copy the resulting cells and paste into Writer. I'd like to have the same
functionality when pasting directly into Writer.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a Writer table with multiple rows.
2. Copy multiple lines of text. For instance, use `seq 1 10` in a terminal and
copy the resulting 10 lines.
3. Paste into a cell of the Writer table.

Actual Results:
All of the lines ended up in one table cell.

Expected Results:
The lines should be spread across multiple rows, one row per line.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No


OpenGL enabled: Yes
