The fix will be available in the next emacs release.

Comment 4 Satish Balay 2016-07-14 15:27:06 UTC

I tried using emacs-25.0.95-1.fc24.x86_64 - the primary issue appears to be resolved.

However - there is a minor regression in behaviour.

When copy/pasting text - all the upper-case letters are converted to lower-case.

I see this is the default behaviour in GUI mode. However in GUI mode - If I do the following - the upper-case letters are preserved

Ctrl-S, mouse-select command bar, copy/paste text.

[Normal mode is: Ctrl-S, copy/paste text on command bar]
