AFAIK that's on purpose since selection is a mouse only thing. You need to
select by mouse (often it won't work with keyboard selections) to set
selection in the first place, and you MMB to paste it. Also, selection is
pasted at the place where you click rather than the cursor position, which is
hard to catch with a keyboard shortcut.
