Er, I'm not the OP, just commenting on other peoples' experiences.
Sorry, Rahul.  Probably shouldn't have stuck my oar in.

However, I may have run into something similar.  VERY rarely when using
gnome-terminals, middle-mouse-button pastes don't work--even with both
the source and destination windows open.  A CTRL-V to paste works.  If
I do a "reset" in the destination gnome-terminal, it works again.

Like I said, that's really rare.  I think I've seen it twice in almost
a year, and that may have been caused by the cat stomping on some key
sequence that gronked it (my cat seems to like my keyboard...probably
chasing the mouse around).
