Pasting into a one-line block comment causes block comment to be deleted

[hamishtodd1]

Type: Bug

I start with this code:

for (let j = 0, jl = snappables.length; j < jl; j++) { }

I put a block comment in a particular place:

for (let j = /**/0, jl = snappables.length; j < jl; j++) { }

I then copy any text, just "a" will do. I then put the cursor between / and / I press ctrl+v ...and it deletes the / and / and the thing I just pasted
