Often the transition between mouse and keyboard is worst. My clients often sends content in the form of a word document and alt + tabbing, selecting text and moving back feels bad. And often the actual pasting is an issue for me. Sometimes I paste only to find I have the wrong register or somehow the clipboard has been cleared.
