Have you tried "Paste special"? If I recall correctly is CTRL + SHIFT + v. In that way you get a dialog with different options. When you copy something it goes to the clipboard, including some metadata information (such as styles). LibreOffice (OpenOffice) can guess what you want to do, but it's unlikely you're going to be happy every time. So that "paste special" functionality is very useful! My 0.2 cents!
