When you block-select (Shift+Alt+Arrow keys) text from multiple lines and then paste something from the clipboard history (Ctrl+Shift+V), the pasted text will replace the selection as if it were selected non-block, e.g. replace full lines even though the lines are not fully selected. The expected behavior would be that the text retrieved from the clipboard history would replace each line in the block selection once, e.g. be replicated as many times as the block selection contains lines (for reference, see what happens when you paste in the regular way Ctrl+V when a multiline block selection is selected).

Thank you for the clear description. Unfortunately this is currently a known limitation of the paste history feature:

case=531

We are aware this is limited, but I don't currently have an estimate for when this will be fixed.
