Details

(Brought over from bug 10325)
Bring up an editor window (apprunner -editor).  Select a small block of text in
the first paragraph, e.g. "a good place", do a Copy, then paste into an app that
takes plaintext.  The paste works fine.  Now make a bigger selection, e.g. from
"not use latin" in the first paragraph down to "Here is some" in the third
paragraph.  Copy again, and paste again.  Nothing comes through.  Test Selection
(in the debug menu) still gets the whole selection in all formats, so I think
the XIF stuff is still working okay.

Priority: P3 → P2
Target Milestone: M9
Using the latest build, I can't even paste a small amount of plain text into
another app, the previous contents of the clipboard are pasted instead.  This
works on Win98. Reassigning to mcafee as p2 for m9
Doesn't Pavlov already have a bug on this?  Cc'ing.

verified, you can't paste big blocks out of editor, though the formatting gets a
little screwed up
