"copy/paste" works with a cookie as clipboard ("_cb", I think).

Your description seems to indicate that something with the cookie
handling goes wrong.

Unfortunately, it is quite difficult to imagine that
cookie problems should result in objects copied several times from
one paste....


Your problem is weird enough that I would use debugging to
find out what happens precisely (search for "pdb.set_trace").
