    Yes, and apparently it can be selectively disabled with something like
    (I'm just guessing)

    perl-ext-common: default,-confirm-paste

    or

    perl-ext: default,-confirm-paste

    in your resources file. Reference:

    Disabling the perl useflag for rxvt-unicode fixed the problem.

    Aren't you also disabling the tabbed function?
