Reproducible with LO 4.4.0.3, Win 8.1.

This is really not intuitive if you are not used to it.  The currently available online help does also not help.  These options should be explained in the LO help.  I for instance do not have any idea what "calc8" means.
Is it also maybe possible to add tooltips in such a dialogue box to explain the entries?

Steps Done:
1. Open CALC
2. Select any cell and press CTRL + C
3. Open a new document in WRITER
4. Go to EDIT -> PASTE SPECIAL in the WRITER document
