A textclip is a special file format for small pieces of anything on a mac 
(*.textClipping). Mark any text in 
any app and drag into a Folder or the desktop, than finder will make a textclip 
file out of it. This 
"exporting" works well in OOo.
"Importing" a textclip (drag and drop somewhere into a document) doesn't:
Writer: An "insert section" Dialog pops up instead of pasting the clip. If 
"OK"ed, a section gets inserted 
but no content of the clip shows up.
Calc: Dropping the clip at F6 (tip of mouse pointer) imports it to in E10 (but 
at least it gets imported). 
Existing content and Formulas in target cell are overwritten without any 
warning. This, but especially 
both behaviors combined may cause severe problems for an user.
Impress & Draw: New textframe with content of the clip gets created which is 
acceptable. Much better 
would be sensing if drop is into a text frame and then insert the text there 
instead creating a new 
frame.

Unfortunately, the writer import is the most likely scenario. 

Expected behavior:
Perform action doing the same as "Paste special…" - "unformatted text" with 
content of the clipboard 
does but using the content of the textclip. 
On the other hand - dropping outside writers text area should behave like Draw 
does now: Create a 
new text frame with the content of the clip at the location the clip was 
dropped.
Using an insertion/text cursor instead of an pointer would be desirable in 
Writer and also in suggested 
"insertion mode" in Draw/Impress..
