Video of the bug

I think I have a reliable way to reproduce this.  It is quite finicky, I spend
and hour trying to make it precise. I took a video of it that is attached.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE with LibreOffice Writer
1. Open Kate and LibreOffice Writer side by side
2. Write "First [ENTER] Second [Enter] blah" into Writer and ensure the
secondary clipboard contains some text ("Blah") by selecting it and pressing
CTRL+C - focus stays in Writer
3. In LibreOffice Writer and DRAG (!) cursor to select text ("FIRST"): DO NOT
make any unnecessary clicks, DO not double click to select, DO NOT use keyboard
arrow and CTRL to select, it only works with selection by mouse dragging
4. Paste primary clipboard to Kate with middle click or CTRL+SHIFT+INS ("Blah"
is pasted)
5. From Kate go back to LibreOffice Writer (without clicking it first) and drag
cursor to select some other text text ("SECOND") 
6. Paste primary clipboard to Kate with CTRL+SHIFT+INS "SECOND" is pasted)
7. Go back to 3. and you can repeat as long as you want (just make sure you do
not click on Writer and possibly Kate before selecting)

Can anybody please confirm? It seems almost like some kind of race condition (I
think I once reproduced it when two Kate windows were side by side, but there
it was extremely tricky to trigger and maybe I was just hallucinating after all
the clicking).

It depends on two things
A) how do I select (double click or drag?)
B) windows must not be clicked unnecessarily.

I have "Focus Follows Mouse" set, but with "Click to Focus" it seems to also
accur.
