Dude, talk about getting things messed up! Yes you fixed one aspect of copy and paste - you can do it now between the sheets, but there are numerous other issues that make it still unusable. Here is my short albeit not exhaustive list:

1. Ctr-C, Ctr-D shortcuts don't work now
2. EEschema crashed when you try to cancel out with an Esc button while trying to paste a symbol (select paste from the menu, having symbol attach to the cursor for placement)
3. Not sure if it is related, but had EEschema crash several times just accessing symbol properties dialog box
4. Copying KiCad version info from the About KiCad menu suffers from the same issue: copy buffer gets cleared once KiCad is closed.

So to sum it up, one step forward, two steps back
