Yes, I have noticed this behaviour.

It happens with most characters that are not ‘normal letters’.

If the line does not start with a normal letter, then it does not paste.

If you paste in another text editor, remove those characters, and then copy and paste again, it works.

You might want to re-categorise this topic as a Bug Report, as I think it is a bug.
