           Summary: Add shortcut for pasting SELECTION buffer
           Product: konsole
           Version: 1.2
          Platform: Gentoo Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: konsole-devel at kde.org
        ReportedBy: wmertens at cisco.com


Version:           1.2 (using KDE 3.1.0)
Installed from:    Gentoo
Compiler:          gcc version 3.2.2
OS:          Linux (i686) release 2.4.20-gentoo-r1

With the advent of KDE3, clipboard handling was standardized so that the SELECTION and CLIPBOARD buffers are clearly separated, with the mouse adding to SELECTION and not CLIPBOARD.

All nice and dandy, but I was really used to selecting with the mouse and then doing shift-insert to paste it in my session.

Could you perhaps implement a 'Paste mouse selection' shortcut? That way users who are used to the old way can still use the old way, knowing what they do, and new users aren't confused.

Thanks!
