Mail already has "Paste and Match style"

Here's a puzzle. I recently realized that I use the "Clipboard Contents (Type Text)" action quite a lot to remove the formatting from text on the clipboard, so I made a shortcut for it: ctrl-opt-cmd-v. To make sure it worked, I went to Mail, copied my signature from another e-mail and pasted it into a draft I was working on...and my computer went completely bananas for about 4 seconds, randomly switching to open applications and opening new windows, invoking random keyboard shortcuts (not QS shortcuts, mind you, the built-in shortcuts in the respective applications). As an experiment, I tried the shortcut again in Text Edit to the same effect. I changed the shortcut to different combinations of ctrl, opt, and cmd to the same effect. Oddly enough, the action works perfectly fine if I invoke it through the command window. I'm running QS B54 on 10.5.5. It's not exactly mission critical, but any ideas on why this happens? --Benton
