Can you elaborate on the > precise order of operations that results in the second paste ending > up somewhere "random"? As Sven explained it is centered indeed, not truly random. But to realize the need of sane placement of the second paste, take an image, zoom it in, copy a rectangle from left, upper corner, paste it, confirm, paste it again, you have to go for the block (to d&d) right, down. Ok drag it and drop it in the initial corner. Now, copy something from bottom, right corner, paste it, confirm, paste it again. Now you have to go up, left. When you copy&paste a lot of blocks all the time it really looks like a random process because you are chasing the second paste all over the window. This is not productive behaviour and can be improved by anticipating the more appropriate placement.
