Bug#2297: Able to reproduce, behavior of other terminal emulators, thoughts?
I tested this scenario with xterm, and reproduced it (thanks to trickle;
incidentally it's actually possible to use trickle on a single machine: ssh
from the machine to itself....)
Then I tested it with a fast konsole. Interestingly, I don't get exactly the
same behavior. But I do get a similar bug. konsole drops the pasted text
on the floor when the return key comes through first; it just gets lost.
Is this better or worse behavior than xterm's behavior?
Since this problem is common to all X apps which use selections, I think the best
we can do is choose a "best failure mode". This may well be a "wontfix".
Thoughts?
