Ned Deily added the comment:

X11-based Tk follows general X11 practice with regard to text pasting.  See 
http://wiki.tcl.tk/3771 for some background.  Old school X11 users expect 
pasting to work that way.  This is yet another instance where Tk attempts to 
conform to the platform it is running on.  I recommend closing this issue as 
X11 Tk (and, hence, IDLE) has behaved like this forever and changing it would 
be painful for many current X11 IDLE users.
