This seems to happen whenever you paste formatted text from OpenOffice into a rich-text field (not only limited to "AJAX" text boxes) in Mozilla-based applications. This does not happen when you paste into plain-text fields.
I agree that this is a fairly major bug that should be fixed before the release, especially given that so many web apps use rich-text fields these days. -- Paste from open office to firefox 2.0 causes crash in open office https://launchpad.net/bugs/62432 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
