Description
Most Windows applications bind control-insert and shift-insert to copy and paste respectively.  The Swing Windows L&F or perhaps the Basic L&F should provide these bindings.
Comments
EVALUATION The Windows L&F already has these bindings for text components (except JFormattedTextField), but not for JList, JTable or JTree. Metal L&F does not have them at all, nor does Basic, Synth, or GTK. To resolve this bug, these bindings: control-insert (for copy) shift-insert (for paste) shift-delete (for cut) will be made available for: JTextComponents JList JTable JTree under the following look and feels: Basic Metal Windows Synth GTK
