Research direction

Reproduce the problem using the bindings.json mappings for Cut and Paste in a two-line buffer. Start by locating the Cut and Paste command entry points and their tests, then add a regression test for cutting both lines and pasting; done means pasting after both cuts returns only "text2" rather than both lines.
