[Linux Launcher] Paste in Launcher test fields does not work
Steps to reproduce:
1. Copy a short string from any external source (browser, text editor etc)
2. Open Unity
3. Sign out (if you're signed in)
4. Go to Sign in
5. Try to paste to the e-mail or password text field
Expected: the text appears in the input box
Actual: text does not appear
Notes:
* If you copy something from e-mail text box, it is possible to paste it in the launcher, but any external clipboard cannot be pasted
* (Likely the same issue) right clicking on text fields opens the context menu (with cut/copy/paste etc. options) for a brief moment and closes it again
Reproduced on: 5.6.3f1, 2017.1.1f1, 2017.2.0f3, 2017.3.0b1

Until this is resolved you can work around this issue using xdotool and xclip:
sudo apt install xdotool xclip
sleep 3 && xdotool type "$(xclip -o -selection clipboard)"Solution derived from:

Resolution Note:
