What version are you running?
1.7.6

What's the URL of the page containing the problem?


What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Post a review
2. Copy arbitrary text by highlighting (it is only possible in Linux desktop)
3. Click a review button (it will pop up a window with "publish review", "discard review", "cancel", "save" buttons)
4. Paste the text by "middle click" in the form (it is only possible in Linux desktop)
5. Click "publish review" button
6. The content will be missing in the review although the review has been successfully published.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

The content that I paste by middle click should be in the review. But I see "empty text".

What operating system are you using? What browser?

Linux. Firefox 19.

Please provide any additional information below.

It also happens with "right click" and then paste from the context menu.

Chrome is likewise affected. My guess is that the form only reacts to keypress events and pasting using the mouse generates none.
