And I can confirm that this still happens.

I'm the author of a clipboard (history) recorder and have quite a lot of
experience in this field, as I have to work around constantly about quirks with
Office apps (and now LO, too).

I have a tool to view the clipboard contents (but there's also one from Apple):
http://www.tempel.org/ShowClipboards

With that you can see that Word places these types into the clipboard, in
order, from the Carbon Pasteboard API:

com.microsoft.Object-Descriptor
public.rtf (RTF )
public.utf16-external-plain-text (ut16)
dyn.ah62d4rv4gk81n65yru (ustl)
com.apple.traditional-mac-plain-text (TEXT)
dyn.ah62d4rv4gk81g7d3ru (styl)
public.html (HTML)
public.utf16-plain-text (utxt)
com.adobe.pdf (PDF )
com.microsoft.Embed-Source
com.microsoft.Link-Source
com.microsoft.Link-Source-Descriptor
com.microsoft.ObjectLink
com.microsoft.HyperlinkWordBkmk
com.apple.webarchive (weba)
public.utf8-plain-text (utf8)
com.microsoft.ole.source.30211.0x10a61fce0
com.microsoft.DataObject
com.microsoft.appbundleid
dyn.agk81n65yru (ustl)
dyn.agk81g7d3ru (styl)

Programs who support Paste should look for the types, and if they support
multiple types, prefer the former to the latter types (this isn't clearly
stated in recent Apple docs, unfortunately). In other words, a program writing
to the clipboard should put the richest data first.

I suspect that LO picks the PDF from this list, whereas it should prefer the
RTF or HTML instead.
