[Reproducible] with "LibreOffice 3.6.3.2" German UI/ German Locale [Build-ID: 58f22d5] on German WIN7 Home Premium (64bit) 

Inherited from OOo, I never saw that working back until OOo 1.1.5

Not a big thing, but at least inconsistent, in WRITER the text calculation formula bar has that context menu function.

@Ivan:
One for you?

Comment 11 V Stuart Foote 2017-04-18 14:40:09 UTC
The Formula Input line field already responds to OS clipboard and the main menu Edit -> Select, Cut, Copy, Paste all connect to the control.

So, would expect should be able create the context menu controls which would be helpful.
