I confirm the same behavior on Neon 6.0.2. Marking confirmed hoping a dev can confirm if this is a duplicate of 461155 or needs separate investigation.
I wonder whether this could pose a security issue i.e. users inadvertently pasting a password or other sensitive info which they had not explicitly copied?
