Given an enumerated list, say, ... 29. foo food footling 30. bar bard barking ....
selecting a word in an item, say "bard" in the example, and pasting it into a new paragraph elsewhere starts a new list, so one gets "1. bard". Is this expected behaviour -- an internal word or character from an item carries the environment with it? I expected to copy and paste only the word, "bard" (which is what happens if pasting into a paragraph that already has some content).
Also, if I select the first word in an item, say "bar", and paste into the (simple) Find dialog (and other dialogs), that shows "30. bar". My naive expectation is that I would have to copy from just after the "g" of "footling" down to just after the "r" of "bar" to select and paste "30. bar". Labelled and itemized lists show analogous behaviour. (This may all be long established behaviour which I simply haven't noticed before.)
And pasting from LyX into Thunderbird seems to include unexpected new lines. If I select a word from the middle of a standard paragraph in LyX and paste it into the middle of a paragraph in Thunderbird, new lines are included before and after the pasted word. Again, I don't recall this happening before.
