Well, this message occurs certainly because you have not only "ab" in
Clipboard.
Select "ab" in a cell and you will have "ab" and a carriage return.
So more than 2 chars.

I see that "Issue 128168 - Pasting Clipboard content into Text field" has now
gained status "RESOLVED NOT_AN_OOO_ISSUE"
Excuse my stubbornness - but am I missing something? If that's the case, would
someone care to enlighten me on Clipboard and text/string handling philosophy
in OpenOffice.
Please read the following and then - if you find it advisable - reply. I shall
truly appreciate it.
1. Issue i.e. MISSING CHARACTER in OVERWRITE mode does not occur when:
- lenght of text is not equal to MaxTexLen (text is shorter than limit)
- block is marked (blue background) - one character or more
2. Before I decided to report this "would-be bug" I checked pasting
Clipboard content set in:
- Notepad++
(Menu > View > Show End of Line). Clearly I copied to Clipboard only
characters, not characters and CR/LF. NotePad++ allows to copy line
with CR/LF too.
- OpenOffice
I tested many cases:
(i) copy cell,
(ii) copy cell content (as you described in your comment),
(iii) copy part of a cell content
Your remark << Select "ab" in a cell and you will have "ab" and a carriage
return>> is perfectly correct yet if generalized has strange onsequencies. If
the cell content is, say "xxabyy", and I mark part of it - for example "ab" -
and copy it, then OpenOffice copies "ab" and adds carriage return. (see (iii)
above - after Paste operation one character vanished).
If I paste "ab" into the OpenOffice Writer actually new line appears.
If I paste same "ab" into Notepad++, new line does not appear (spooky, isn't
it? Or at least proves inconsistency)
Part of cell content should be string as it is not string with carriage return
(unless explicitly stated or predefined - like in Basic: Chr(13) & Chr(10) or
"MultiLine" property in UNO), no matter what I intend to do with: copy to
Clipboard, copy to another cell and so one.
3. Even if a carriage return is added (as in case of barcode scanner adding
CR/LF/Return or Enter key to barcode for efficiency), why one character
after paste operation is MISSING? (see point 1.). One would argue that
when lenght of text reaches MaxTextLen and pasting occurs:
- in INSERT mode text remains unchanged
- in OVERWRITE mode - text shall be shortened - really? (again: what
about missing character and cases mentionned in point 1. above)
Hence my humble request at the beginning.

ADDENDUM to Comment #5 (reply to Comment #4)
Seems if have found another clear inconsistency in above explanation, this time
solely within OpenOffice.
If, as stated above, OpenOffice adds a carriage return to string copied from a
cell, then why when Clipboard content is pasted into another cell, new line
does not appear - please compare this with pasting Clipboard content into
OpenOffice Writer (new line does appear). Is therefore a carriage return in
effect as a general rule or is handled on case-by-case basis?
Please note in this context that pressing OK when cell is in Edit mode
results in moving cursor cell into adjacent cell.
Pasting string with added carriage return merely changes cell content.
