Again, the widget with current focus needs to be defined as a PasteTarget (class in Sigil) or it will not get to be the target of a paste.

So it is working as designed. So this is not a bug by definition. But it is inconsistent behaviour. You can of course copy that character to your clipboard and paste it anyplace.

If you want the Find and Replace inside the Saved Searches editor to be a Paste Target as a new feature, I would be happy to consider it.
What I would like is for clicking on a character in the Insert Special Character window to be treated the same as pressing a key. I don't know how difficult that is in Qt, but any other behavior is likely to lead to inconsistencies.
