I'm not really expecting a solution to this problem, I was just having a bit of a rant at what seems like poor UI design common to almost every GUI app (apart from terminal windows and, maybe, a few editors). Unless, of course, there is some generic user interface option that I don't know about.
Well, that's good, because it's down to the developers how to interpret mouse actions, and they all disagree with each other...
Now, what you might be interested in instead is that there's a keyboard shortcut for pasting the X11 clipboard, Shift-Ins, that should do what you expect.
Shift-Ins doesn't seem to do anything for me in a textarea I just tried.
Ah, it works in this terminal window though, since terminals work the way I like anyway it doesn't win me much!
