Bug Description
I'm using Wine in Ubuntu 16 LTS to run Notepad++. I copied some text in Notepad++ (right-click > Copy) and then tried to paste it in the terminal (right-click > Paste) but it would just paste the text already in the clipboard. I tried that multiple times because I thought it was supposed to work that way, but it didn't.
I opened Firefox to ask on askubuntu and the reply I got was CTRL + Shift + V, which when I tried it did work. Since right-click > Paste did not work I was surprised by that. Even more surprising is that after that I was able to paste text into the terminal from Notepad++ by the menu method described above that initially did not work.
I cannot offer steps to reproduce this. If there's anything you want me to do should it happen again please let me know.
