speak for yourself, I frequently need to paste in URLs in multiple steps when people send me links that are extremely long and so get broken across lines.
admittedly, this is mostly a case of appending to the URL rather than inserting in the middle, but I've had reasons to do that as well.
a paste should either insert the text whereever the cursor currently is (my preference) or insert it where the pointer is (fallback), it should never blindly replace everything with a new thing if you didn't tell it ot

GNOME 3.10 Released Posted Sep 28, 2013 17:33 UTC (Sat) by james (subscriber, #1325) [Link] Have you tried pasting the entire broken URL into the address bar, line-breaks and all? Most GUI browsers will (attempt to) DTRT and remove the line-breaks for you.

Yes, sometimes it works, sometimes not.
all too frequently, the URL now has spaces (or quote characters) added at the beginning of each line that will prevent the broawser from DTRT
