Why is Ctl-V intuitive? Just because that is how Windows does it does not make 
it 'intuitive'

In Unix/Linux pasting is done by pressing the centre mouse button/mouse wheel.
If you have no centre button click left and right buttons simultaneously.

It will paste either the last highlighted text, or the text you select in 
kicker.
It works across almost all Linux applications (OpenOffice is one of the few 
exceptions), and once you get used to it is much more 'intuitive' than the 
keyboard contortions you need to make Clt-C, Ctl-V
