confirmed, and very jarring. i think this happens because i activated no-flicker mode as per the workaround here: https://github.com/anthropics/claude-code/issues/52309#issuecomment-4346068630 -- disabling no-flicker mode allows middle-click-paste to work again. it would be nice to be able to use no-flicker mode and get some of the benefits (the best one IMHO is using page-up/page-down to scroll in output while the text box remains at the bottom) while still being able to middle-click to paste.
