Description of problem: Was pasting some text from the web in Firefox, perhaps the formatting (fonts, etc.) caused the problem?

Could you be a bit more specific? Is there a web page that I can open, select some specific part, and get a crash when trying to paste the selection into Writer?
David, I don't remember the specific page but it was on this website: http://csi.gsb.stanford.edu/social-entrepreneurship-and-cocoa-farmers What I did was block copy the text "Center for Social Innovation" from the top of the page. LibreOffice crashed when I tried to repaint the font after pasting. I just now tried it in a fresh document and repainted just fine with no crash. But I then just now reproduced the problem by first pasting some text from another document with the Arial font (which is not selectable in LibreOffice directly) and then tried to paint the pasted text from the web page to Arial, and that reproduced the LibreOffice crash (Abrt on my computer remembered the problem). Suspicion confirmed that the crash is related to painting to Arial font, at least in this case. Not sure if this is in your possible activities to fix, but was happy to file the Abrt report (it took an unusually long time to compile its submission). A workaround that I have used is to first past text from another source to a text editor, such as gedit, and then from gedit into LibreOffice, and that works fine.

Created attachment 751365 [details] screencast for this bug
For attachment 751364 [details] it's caused by combination of text and table.
Crashes 3.6, but not 4.0. Let's see if I can find where it was fixed.
Can't find anything that looks relevant. Let's not pretend we will fix this in F-18...
