Hi Arthur, I just checked on the oldest version I have installed (2.2), and
not only does pasting a card work, but the dictionary entry for 'paste' in
that version also says that cards can be pasted into the default stack.
I searched bugzilla and came up with a report that looks relevant:
http://quality.runrev.com/qacenter/show_bug.cgi?id=5182

That bug report relates to cutting & pasting cards in 2.8.1, and Oliver
Kenyon says it works for him.  However, when I follow the same recipe he
gives as working in 2.8.1, I get the following error on 3.0 when trying to
paste the card into the stack:

can't paste (empty clipboard or locked destination)


Since the dictionary entry for 3.0 no longer mentions the ability to paste
cards, I wonder if this feature has been intentionally removed.
