We do not. I've seen too much damage being done through copy/paste. A
much better (safer) way to copy code is to re-type it. I've asked more
than once, when asked to help debug a piece of code: "Did you copy this 
code?".

For this reason I have a vision of a "plugin" for Eclipse that disables paste
if the clipboard contains copied code. Cut and paste would be ok.
