Description:
If you copy a column datatype to the clipboard, the paste keyboard shortcut does not work to paste it into an existing column or new column datatype.  Using the right-click context menu to copy/paste does work.

I confirmed CTRL-C does copy since I can paste it to another document (Notepad, etc.).  However, CTRL-V will not paste.

How to repeat:
1. Edit Table schema (WRENCH icon).
2. Highlight a column datatype.
3. Press CTRL-C to copy to clipboard.
4. Click into the datatype drop-down on either an existing or new column.
5. Press CTRL-V to paste from the clipboard.  Nothing is pasted.

Suggested fix:
Restore CTRL-V paste function.
