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.
