Issue with FC4 and konqueror

Every day, I browse through some news articles and highlight text in the
article and paste it into Openoffice.
This way I can take a quick look at an article while compiling programs or
other long operations without going through the trouble to find the article
again.
If I use firefox, the article will copy with all of its html formatting. What
I want is just the text with some line breaks where they are in the original
article. I get around this by first pasting the text into kwrite and the
recopying it and pasting it into the openoffice document.
With the konqueror in FC3 and older, I could just highlight the web page and
paste it into the openoffice document and it would come in perfectly as just
text with no enhanced formatting.
When I tried it this morning in FC4 and konqueror 3.4.0-5 which is the version
bundled with FC4, it does not grab the line breaks any more.
Does anybody have a simple way to accomplish this the way that it used to work
in fc3?
