The problem appears to be with the auto-copy feature.  If "Use Gorilla auto-
copy" is off, in the Preferences, the username is correctly copied to the 
clipboard.  If it is on, then the password overwrites the username on the 
clipboard by the time I can do a paste.

Note that this is NOT a second paste operation as far as I am concerned.  The 
password has overwritten the clipboard by the time I do the first paste 
operation. 

The problem appears to be a KDE component called Klipper which watches the 
clipboard.  Presumably it is causing Password Gorilla to think I have pasted 
the username.

As far as I know, I am running a fairly standard KDE setup.  I certainly 
haven't deliberately changed my KDE setup since the previous version of 
Password Gorilla.  It does seem to be a problem that the behaviour appeared to 
break when upgrading.

I believe the default for the auto-copy feature should be off.  And the tooltip 
and the help should mention that the feature does not work with KDE Klipper so 
anyone turning it on knows where to look for problems.

In my case, I don't think I have ever actually used Klipper so I think I will 
turn Klipper off and re-enable auto-copy, but I still do not think the defaults 
should install a broken setup.
