On a clean up to date Artful system I noticed some odd behavior in the terminal.
Steps to reproduce:-
1. Open a terminal by right clicking the desktop and Open Terminal.
2. Double click the command prompt
3. Middle click to paste
Expected behavior
Contents of terminal appears pasted
Actual behavior
Nothing
Oddly, terminals launched from the activities menu or by pressing CTRL+ALT+T don't exhibit this behavior. In addition, sometimes it works if you copy from a terminal launched in the two mentioned ways, and try to paste into the one launched from the desktop.

Video showing me launching a terminal from the activities menu where middle click paste works. Launching a terminal from the desktop context menu and middle click paste not working. Then launching gedit where also I can't paste what I have highlighted in the terminal, but can copy from gedit to terminal via middle click paste.
