I can do that just fine, must be your browser interfering.

You're right. It seems to be working now. When I first tried, I could paste into any field but the change password fields.

However on PayPal, when pasting I received a little tooltip-style popup saying something along the lines of "Please do not copy and paste passwords.", followed by their password criteria.

Pasting into other fields (including the login page password field) worked perfectly fine.

Ugh, companies misunderstanding password security is so infuriating. Yes, let me use my memorable 8 character password instead of my fully randomized 30 character password protected by a strong password I use only for that, and a keyfile I have stored on my computer. I feel so much more secure now that I'm using weaker passwords.
