I have the fix for bug #57477 in my tree.  I no longer get an uber-caret when I 
copy/paste as described in the original bug report.  Also, I cannot reproduce 
85520.

I still can reproduce #71873 (initial bug report only) so maybe it's not really a 
duplicate or the fix is incomplete?

With the latest patch in bug #57477, I can't reproduce the bug described in this
bug report but I can reproduce the two bugs marked as duplicates of this bug
(bug #71873 and bug #85520).

fix checked in

still not fixed in 6/19 build.

Comment 12

[Joe Francis]

i thought one of my other patches had fixed this since i had been unable to
reproduce it on my machine.  Since it isn't fixed i'm pushing it back to 093 -
it's not as critical as some of the 092 stuff.

Syd gave me permission to add nsbeta1 keyword to all bugs marked "[QAHP]"
in the status whiteboard. These are Editor usability bugs and are important
to fix for MachV.

We will have another triage meeting at some later date and re-evaluate
whether this bug is a MUSTFIX for MachV.

verified on 9/7  0.9.4 branch. works fine.
 
when you copy "This is a test" from this list

* This is a test
*

and paste it into the second bullet, you get the following

* This is a test
* This is a test
*

so I guess this works now.
