Invoking Paste/PasteSelection commands in editor (vim, nano) mangles pasted text with existing text #733

A screencast comparing gnome-terminal (left) to alacritty (right) will do better than words:

alacritty-paste-in-editor-inserts

The key_binding I invoked is visible on the screencast, it is:

- { key: V,        mods: Control|Shift,    action: Paste               }

... and I tried PasteSelection, with the same results. Am I doing something wrong or is it a bug?

This is alacritty master @ 4e9b1c5 vs. gnome-terminal 3.18.3, no tmux, under Ubuntu 16.04.3 LTS.
