The "Paste" button depends on two checks "not dontAllowCopyAndPaste"
and "cb_dataValid".

As the name tells you "dontAllowCopyAndPaste" controls both copy
and paste (and rename and cut). This means, when you see
the "Copy" button but not the "Paste" one, then "dontAllowCopyAndPaste"
is "False" (as well as "cb_dataValid").


"cb_dataValid" is defined in "OFS.CopySupport.CopySupport".

The most natural reason why it may return "False" is that the
"__cp" cookie (that's Zope's clipboard) is not set.
However, other reasons may apply as well.
