copy/paste shortcuts

[Mark Swindell]

Thanks for posting this and for the explanation of what may be  
happening.  I voted for the bug post.  I think it's very important  
that this is straightened out.  People expect things to work as they  
do everywhere else.  This isn't a good thing for new users who may  
find this to be a metaphor for the greater integrity of Rev.  And  
it's a pain.  I've been doing a lot of editing and manually moving  
card elements and script snippets, and it is really a hassle.  GLX2  
also has issues with cut and paste and retaining clipboard info.   
Perhaps dependent on the engine confusions you describe, but also  
frustrating.  I'm learning to work around them, but it is not the way  
things ought to be.
