--- Comment #7 from Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin at gmx.de> ---
Hmm. I tried to reproduce the issue, but was unable to.

Is it possible that your mouse has a really worn-out middle mouse button?
Sometimes the mouse wheel serves as middle mouse button, too, so if it is quite
jiggery, it is possible that it gets "clicked". This is interpreted by Linux'
window manager as a paste event.

Another idea I have is that maybe the Alt key gets sticky. You can move the
selection (or if nothing is selected, the current line) by using Alt+cursor
movement.

But the fact that it happens at offset 19:40 (slice 4 in the animated GIF I
attached) just after a wild scroll orgy and the fact that the cursor is in the
same line as the pasted text convinces me that the middle mouse button is the
culprit. In particular with worn mice it is all too easy to press the scroll
wheel at the end of scrolling the text.

Do you think that this hypothesis matches your evidence?
