Thanks! No rush.

According to the calibre code, when copying to the clipboard by calibre, it will generate a table and set its mimetype to text/html. Then calibre strips out the table elements replacing them with divs and etc (so still html) but saves it as the mimetype text/plain. All of this seems to be correct afaict.

Old PageEdit seems to always use the text/html mimetype data from the clipboard. Newer PageEdit seems to get confused by two mimetype datasets on the clipboard both technically with html and ends up pasting the second one not the first one it finds.

I do not know why. There have been very few changes to the QtWebEngine clipboard code for close to a 2 years, and none of those few changes should cause this issue.
