Changes (by HoboPrimate):

  * summary:  Pasting a text clipping from the clipboard frame outputs text
              without spaces => Copying from Browse to Write,
              only pastes the text correctly if you stick to
              the same method when copying and pasting (dnd
              or copy/paste buttons)

Comment:

 So I think I've narrowed this bug to be an interaction between Browse and
 Write.[[BR]]
 If you copy a piece of text from a webpage in Browse with Ctrl+C or the
 Copy Button, the text will be pasted fine if you use Ctrl+V or Paste
 Button, but not if you drag from the clipboard frame.[[BR]]
 And vice-versa, if you copy a piece of text from a webpage via dragging,
 is pasted nicely in Write if dragged, but not using Ctrl+V or Paste
 Button.
