It is related to the syntax color highlighting, and it appears to be deep in javax.swing.text and the matchers used to match it. Nothing that Groovy or our text editor class is doing as best I can see. We may need to over-rider the paste actions to get it fixed.

(accidentally resolved it when I meant to press 'add comment')

Is this really a critical bug?

Well, it gets really annoying when working with several scripts for a while (specially coming from GraphicsPad). But I guess not that many people use groovyConsole everyday, otherwise this should have been reported previously.

Actually...it probably won't as it still has to go through the regular expression Lexer to colourise the script...

I'll have a look to see if I can optimise the lexer a bit
