Clipboard code is system-dependent, that's why this MacOSX problem is
not reproducible in Linux/Windows.
This is already reported in bugzilla:
https://issues.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=124434
https://issues.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=125010
https://issues.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=105098
and may be more.

Drag and Drop was significantly reworked by Armin in version 4.1, see
release notes. This may explain why it works for you with 4.1 and it
doesn't work for others with 3.4.1 and 4.0.1. In any case, due to the
major changes in 4.1, please ask reporters to try with 4.1 too.
Regards,
Andrea.
