           Summary: drag and drop highlighted data from konsole paste the
                    wrong buffer
           Product: konsole
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Compiled Sources
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: konsole-devel at kde.org
        ReportedBy: munehiro at ferrara.linux.it


Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.0.99)
Installed from:    Compiled From Sources
Compiler:          gcc (GCC) 3.2 (Mandrake Linux 9.0 3.2-1mdk) 
OS:          Linux

how to reproduce

- open kwrite and a konsole
- write something on the konsole, then highlight with the mouse what you wrote (say "hello") and select "copy".
- always in konsole, write something different, and highlight it (or highlight the prompt) then start a drag and drop from the konsole to the kwrite. The Cursor will hint the drag with the square and the 'plus' sign.
- the kwrite will receive the paste buffer, so you will have "hello" in kwrite and not the prompt.

This is wrong or at least not intuitive. Please note that doing the same in reverse order from kwrite to konsole works as expected (the highlighted text is the one which is pasted when the drop event occur)
