1. Yes, it happening all the times.
2.1. Open gnome-terminal v2.24.1.1 (current version as of now)
2.2. Go to Edit->Keyboard shortcuts and
2.2.1 Disable all shortcuts in the check boxes
2.2.2 Disable the shortcuts in the list below
2.2.3 Hit the button OK
2.3. Select your prompt text (or any other displayed text in the window)
2.4 Hit Shift+Ins keys
2.5 The selected text will be pasted to the terminal window at the cursor position
2.6 You can repeat by actually copying the text into the clipboard from either the Edit menu or the context menu
3. Done. Same behaviour.

shift+insert seems to be tided to the X selection i don't know if you can disable that in gnome-terminal or in another application this could be more like an x issue rather.

next step is to forward this upstream to bugzilla.gnome.org to ask the software developers about the possibilities of disable that on gnome-terminal, feel free to do it since you're interested on that.
