Use the middle mouse button to paste the current selection. Perhaps I
sometimes forget that this is a very common mechanism in X to copy &
paste because so many people are used to the ctrl-c,x,v way of doing
things now.

Sometimes you need to use shift too. The improved copy and paste
refers to "extended ASCII" -- before international characters could be
pasted into something completely different but now they are usually
translated to and from UTF-8.
