I noticed that last night.

The GTK+ framework preserves text attributes during copy and paste.
Since the transcript text is not editable, neither is a pasted copy of
some selection of that text.

I'll see whether I can figure out how to override that behavior.

Meanwhile, you can use aplwrap's "copy-down" feature. Select some text
in the transcript and press Enter; the selection will be copied down to
the input area; this copy is editable.
