The style concept of both Word and LO/OO however is so severely screwed up that I've never ever seen a document that would have allowed to re-use content in any other way (within the same application!) than by copying and pasting it as unformatted text and then re-applying all the formatting by hand.
If I understand you correctly (and I'm not at all certain I do), I think I've noticed similar behavior. I've noticed that if I copy and paste text in Word or LO/OO *and* include the closing paragraph marking (¶) then the paragraph formatting will also be pasted, but if I copy text without including the closing paragraph marking, then the text will be pasted using the same paragraph style as the destination paragraph. However, character formatting (bold, italic) is retained in the pasted text. I've never had a problem, as long as I keep the paragraph markings revealed and either select or not select them based on my specific needs at the time.
