For me it usually goes, select some text, try and paste, get a stupid scroll mode, try ctrl+v don't get what I want, go back to original document, select the text agian try and paste...

Eventually I remember to ctrl+c but it just flows so well, select then paste that it feels like a real step backwards going to a system that does not have it.

I do agree that the middle mouse button should be divorced from the scroll wheel.

You can bind C-S-c and C-S-v and other keystrokes, to get similar to what you get in a terminal.
