Issue

Coming from gnome-terminal, I expected Shift+Insert to paste from middle-click buffer but instead it does exactly the same as Ctrl+Shift+V and inserts the contents of the clipboard.

I couldn't find another keyboard shortcut to do it either. Is there a way to edit keyboard shortcuts?

At least I can perform this action using the mouse (middle click) for now but that's inconvenient since I like to do most things without leaving the keyboard.

Anyway, I would like it if Shift+Insert would paste from middle-click buffer (also called primary or selection buffer) like it does in gnome-terminal. See for example http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/178070/why-does-shiftinsert-paste-from-clipboard-in-some-applications-and-primary-in-o#answer-178401

Likewise, on Mac, Terminal.app has a shortcut Cmd+Shift+V that pastes the last selected text, without needing to copy it to the clipboard. Similar to the select buffer in X Windows, but it only works in Terminal.app (also between terminal windows).

I know there is the copyOnSelect option, but that actually copies into the clipboard, something I like to avoid so I have 2 buffers to work with…

Is implementing something like this possible with the Hyper architecture?
