I put <b>aaaa</b> into the paste buffer from line 1
I put the cursor in overwrite mode - you can see it is horizontal not vertical
I pasted.

I expected to get line 3 because I was in overwrite mode, but instead I got line 2, which I can easily get if the cursor is in insert mode.

Please consider having paste in overwrite mode overwrite rather than insert as this would give the user even more capability.

Thanks!
