Hi Niklas, your construction site ? Frank
This is the EditEngine's internal clipboard format (EE_FORMAT_BIN), which uses gsl_getSystemTextEncoding in BinTextObject::StoreData. Text content is additionally stored in Unicode at the end, but not the field data.
Considering the effort, the priority, the risk and our resource planning I've to retarget this issue to OOo Later.
Well, it is might be OK. We would solve this kind of stuff at the same time. Thank you for your consideration and evaluation.
This phenomenon can be also observed in 3.0.0 Beta. What do you want contibutors to do?
