Really? If so, it is a bug that should be fixed. The patch looks OK to 
me.


Note that:

- lyx paste to where mouse is

As do almost every other graphical app . . .

- many other applicate paste to where cursor is (e.g. gvim)


I believe gvim do this so it won't be too different from
running vim in a xterm.  And vim works this way because
it is a text-only app with no concept of a mouse position.

It is possible for a text-only app to know about mouse positioning,
but few of them try because they might be running on a
mouse-less terminal.  Mouse cut/paste is then a function of
the terminal, not the app itself.
