Any problem here is related to the design of the Paste Special dialog and the
possible unintuitiveness of the interaction between "Selection" and
"Operations".

If you have some ideas on making this interaction more intuitive in the dialog,
please open a report describing them.

I just tested this and got the same results as Timur in comment 2, everything
works as designed. So once again, please push for a change in the larger design
(affecting not just comment pasting), if you so desire.
