Clipboard contents lost after you use Actors or functions

I was wondering if this was a bug or something I was doing wrong.
I make a copy of some text from another script inside the editor.
Go to a different script, Click on Actor and function to put in some code.
The go to insert my copied text and instead, it pastes the last function I selected from the menu.

It seems as though the menus are using the same variable to insert their text as copy/paste is using, or they are being "kicked out of line to paste" , if you know what I mean, in the program.

If this is indeed a bug, I would like to put this in my list of things that would be nice to be changed in the next version. I often keep something in the paste option when programming, i.e. A line I have typed I know I will be using alot during a certain session of programming.

It just drives me nuts, hope Mak can fix this in next release. Been programming since "New improved 4 color CGA monitors Available now" was the hot AD for pcs. It's hard to get an OLD dog to change. I just go for that CTRL+V and have to end up deleting the line.
