hmm, after doing a little resaerch I can now set my greasy finger on the spot.
Here is how to reproduce the bug:

1. Close all edit-windows
2. Open 2 arbitrary edit-windows
3. Use (ctrl-c) in the first
4. Go to the second and press (ctrl-v)

The text in the copybuffer is pasted onto the first editbox, thus the one not 
in focus (this can't be the way it was intended).

P.S. When I use Copy/Paste through the menu everything seems to work right.
