Before GITHUB....  
Lists : the copy through the contextual menu of checkboxes is pasted like bullet... !

- If the copy is done with [CTRL] [C], no changes : the copy of checkboxes list gives a checkboxes list.
- If I use the shortcut **[CTRL] [MAJ] [V]** in order to paste there are two behaviors according the origine of the paste:

1. Paste after a [CTRL] [C]:

2. Paste after a right click and copy:

It seems that copy and paste through contextual menu and usual shortcuts ( [CTRL] [C] , [CTRL] [V] and [CTRL] [MAJ] [V] are maybe waiting for a kind of harmonization...

Is it only me ?

No changes in the 3.4.1 version of JOPLIN.  
Do you have this issue too ?
