Maybe I'm missing something, but this seems like a huge deal and still
an issue in LibreOffice (4.2.8.2 on Ubuntu 14.04).  I have tried
variations of this procedure many times, always with the same result.
The two texts differ in a few minor places.
To reproduce:

  * open Writer
  * copy text 1 from another application and paste into Write via Edit > Paste 
Special > Unformatted Text
  * save and close
  * open a new Writer document and repeat the above with text 2
  * open document 1
  * click Edit > Compare Document and choose document 2
  * expected result:  a few small insertions and deletions representing the 
differences between the texts
  * result:  one huge insertion and one huge deletion

Why is this marked "won't fix"?
