Yes - Cursor is unusable

I would love to see this too! And we have an open ticket for it. Unfortunately, it works the same way on Mac right now: when screenshots are added directly to the clipboard without a specific file, pasting doesn’t work.

It’s on our list, and I’m happy to follow up here when we have an update.
