Copy/Paste does not work from the context menu when active element is input/textArea

[kittaakos]

Copy-paste does not work using the context-menu only if the focused element is either an input or a textArea.

• VSCode Version: 1.45.1 5763d90
• OS Version: macOS 10.15.4 (19E287)

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Open the Search view. (Ctrl/Cmd+Shift+F)
2. Type vscode.
3. Right click in the input, select Copy from the context menu.
4. Right click in the input, select Paste. Nothing happens. It should insert vscode so that the input shows vscodevscode.

Notes:

• The copy action works as expected because I could paste with the copied content with the keybinding.
• It is important to select the Search view, as the Source Control view wraps a monaco editor and not an input or textArea.

Difference between the context menus:
Monaco editor based context menu (SCM, for example):

input/textArea-based context menu (Search view, for instance):

I am going to close this as invalid, it works, sort of. The SCM and the Search "inputs" work differently, good to know.

I was an idiot and expected to see the original value plus the pasted one, but it works differently; contextmenu event will set the focus and select the input value, so when I execute the paste command, it overrides the original value. This seems to be the default behavior with inputs on macOS.
