      This is something that I noticed some time ago using 3.4.4. from
the LO website. In my case, Control+Shift+V did not open the usual
dialog allowing me to select my preferred style to use for the pasted
material. One thing I thought peculiar was that clicking 
Edit gave me a menu in which Paste was active but Paste Special was
grayed out. So, I have had the same experience.
      I must say that 3.4.5 from the LO website does not have this
problem.
