1.6.1

What's the URL of the page containing the problem?
Any diff page.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Put some text on the clipboard
2. Click a line in a diff to open the comment dialog
3. Right-click in the textarea and select Paste

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

1.5 years and the issue has not been fixed? It is still present in 1.7.12.

Unfortunately, you could say that for a lot of issues. Frankly, there's just a lot on our plates, and not everything gets fixed, even if it seems easy. This is why we ask for patches from those who really need certain things in. We only recently transitioned from RB being a nights-and-weekends project to a full-time job.

We have a batch of students starting on bugs soon for their semester. I'll mark this one for them.
