Comment 5 for bug 1794310

I see the issue now. I was using the dev branch for my testing which is significantly different than the 5.0 branch. The 5.0.0 and 5.0.1-defv behavior is awkward because there is no indication that you need to select a reference point after cut or copy command. Also, cut does not remove the selected objects until the paste command is issued so it is confusing. All of this has been fixed in the dev branch as one would expect. It probably should be back ported to 5.0.0 but I'm not sure how much effort this would be.
