LibreOffice's Tools ▸ AutoText, in the ribbon where Word keeps its Quick Parts: store the selection under a name and a shortcut, insert it from the library or by typing the shortcut and pressing F3 — LibreOffice's key for it. An entry is HTML parsed back through the schema, so it keeps its marks and blocks; the library is app-level, as it is in both products, so no file carries it.
