New description:

 used the copy icon (in the frame) to copy text from Terminal to try and
 view a url in Browse.  the paste icon is in the edit tab in browse, but
 the url entry field is in the "browse" tab.  i couldn't get paste to work.

 using a two-button paste did work.  however, that resulted in an extra
 "garbage" character (a newline or carriage return?) in the url field.
 (firefox did not have this issue.)

 (build 8.2-759)

Comment:

 Marco wonders whether we need to implement this use case for activation
 purposes?
