I think this comment is very slightly inaccurate, it's if the focus node is a block or part of a block (e.g. connection or field)
| const pasteOrigin = block?.getRelativeToSurfaceXY(); | ||
| if (pasteOrigin) { | ||
| return !!clipboard.paste(copyData, targetWorkspace, pasteOrigin); | ||
| } |

it would be super cool if when:
- a connection is focused
- the copied block is compatible with that connection
we connected the block to the connection automatically
but that could be a follow up feature too :)

Fixes #9091
Proposed Changes
This updates the
'paste'shortcut to use a currently focused block's position instead of the position included in thecopyData. If a block's child is focused (e.g., connection, comment editor, etc.), the source block's position is used. If the workspace is focused, there is no change to the behavior.Reason for Changes
Previously, if the user copied in one location with the keyboard and then moved to a different block, the paste would occur near the original copied block's location.
Test Coverage
Added new relevant tests.
