If you put an Eclipse workspace patch onto the system clipboard, you can hit paste (Ctrl+V) in the Project Explorer to open the patch wizard on that patch. This doesn't work in the Package Explorer. I thought this used to work so this seems to be a regression. However I usually use the Project Explorer all the time, so I'm not positive if this is a recent regression or it just never worked.

I cannot reproduce this using I20100922-0800.

Steps:
1. start with new workspace
2. click on attachment 180194 [details]
3. select all and copy
4. paste into Package Explorer (either via menu, context menu or Ctrl+V)

I also tested with different selections in the Package Explorer.

Are you sure it was said build or did you maybe run on a 4.1 build?

Please reopen if you have more detailed steps to reproduce.
