--- Comment #20 from Nate Graham <n...@kde.org> ---
So apparently, this behavior happens if your
~/.config/plasma-org.kde.plasma.desktop-appletsrc file has the text:

MidButton;NoModifier=org.kde.paste

Under "[ActionPlugins][1]"

[ActionPlugins][1] corresponds to the panel, while [ActionPlugins][0]
corresponds to the desktop.

These defaults are set in desktoppackage/contents/defaults in the
plasma-desktop repo. And our default file has the following in it:

[Desktop][ContainmentActions]
RightButton;NoModifier=org.kde.contextmenu
MidButton;NoModifier=org.kde.paste
wheel:Vertical;NoModifier=org.kde.switchdesktop

[Panel]
Containment=org.kde.panel
ToolBox=org.kde.paneltoolbox
[Panel][ContainmentActions]
RightButton;NoModifier=org.kde.contextmenu


So by default, we are not turning on this behavior; something else must be
doing so. It may be another theme which sets this, and then it gets stuck in
your config file forever. That would suck. It would also be a real bug in that
it's pretty bad that you can't access a UI to disable this behavior, so once
you somehow get stuck with it, it's practically impossible for you to get rid
of it.

Either way, until this gets fixed, a workaround is to remove "
MidButton;NoModifier=org.kde.paste" from the "[ActionPlugins][1]" section of
the ~/.config/plasma-org.kde.plasma.desktop-appletsrc file.
