Thanks for pointing to this report, Timur. In bug 101818 Marco brought up MS's variant of this (see sketch at [1]), and I argued for having a novice/expert view of the dialog, one would be straightforward and convenient to use even for new users, and the other would show all the choices the Paste Special dialog currently has (wording should still be improved there of course).
