Hmm, I'm seeing slightly different gvim behaviour.

Ctrl-Insert and Shift-Insert work for copy and paste, which is great! But the selection is immediately cleared when I copy with ctrl-insert. Then I can do "gv" to re-select, and shift-insert replaces the selection with the clipboard contents.

There's no need to exit to normal mode or press escape on my machine. I used `gvim -u NONE`.

I've confirmed that pasting with Shift-Insert works on PuTTY as well. Its default behaviour is to set the clipboard contents as soon as the selection is made, so do we need to assume the current clipboard contents is the selection?
