Well, LibreOffice introduced the Enter key for pasting, imitating one of 
the most irritating Excel features. But in Excel one can turn off this 
annoyance.
And then they introduced these marching ants when you copy a cell range 
but in such an idiotic way that it keeps on marching when you select 
something different in another window, even in the same application, 
even in the same component.
It is not necessary to imitate Excel.

Hit Escape after copying to stop the marching ants. Then it Enter and 
Ctrl+V behave normally.
