Pasting multi-line comments removes leading whitespace

Details

Description

When pasting the following contents: 

/**
 *
 */

The editor will remove the leading whitespace for the second and third lines:

/**
*
*/

This is also true for:

/*
 *
 */

Note, however, this behavior is only observed when there is no text selected prior to the paste operation. If text is selected then the paste procedes as expected.

See GRECLIPSE-773. The smartPaste method is the likely place to fix this problem.
