I am reading GNOME design guidelines and GNOME keyboard shortcuts page, and both say that you press Ctrl+V to paste content previously copied.

However, whenever I do this in GNOME Terminal it does not exactly paste the copied text - it adds something at the beginning that was not there in the original. I had this when copied some commands to fine tune Fedora after installation by copying commands listed in Fedora Quick Docs into the Terminal. Only when I used Ctrl+Shift+V text was copied correctly.

Why is that? Why does Ctrl+V work everywhere but the Terminal?
