When using libreoffice online and drag-and-dropping some text onto the document. It uses the paste websocket command to send data. This overwrites the internal clipboard causing some unusual behavior. 1. Ctrl+C "System" into system clipboard. 2. Ctrl+V, pastes "System" 3. Right-click and click "Internal paste" it pastes "System" 4. Drag-and-drop "drop" onto page. 5. Right-click and click "Internal paste" it pastes "drop" 6. Ctrl+V, pastes "drop" 7. Paste into another application, pastes "System" Step 6 occurs because the client-side is keeping a "hash" of the System clipboard and sending a command to insert the internal clipboard instead of re-sending the data if the hashes match. I imagine this is done to save bandwidth, but it also decreases reliability of the system clipboard pretty badly, especially since there is functionality to explicitly modify the internal clipboard with the internal copy. Drag-and-drop should not modify the internal clipboard either.
