Bug Description
Binary package hint: tomboy
On: Ubuntu 9.04 32bit, (also seen on 8.x)
To reproduce:
1. Copy text from a Tomboy note, making sure that text contains more than one style (eg bold&italic, or bullets and normal)
2. Paste text within a Tomboy note (either same, or another)
3. Press Ctrl+Z to undo
4. you should see that the undo operation does not undo the paste in one go, but Ctrl+Z needs to be pressed repeatedly.
It appears that a paste operation is not stored in the undo history as a single operation, but as several.
This is counter-intuitive, given that nearly every other program out there stores a paste as a single operation.
This issue is simliar to:
#68757 Ctrl + 'Z' doesn't completely undo an evolution mail link insertion
Probably due to same issue?

Easily confirmed on 9.04, tomboy 0.14.0-0ubuntu1. Copied the "Start Here" note to a new note. Undo does not undo paste, but deletes one word at a time.
