Could that be because it's current behavior is very annoying? It's one thing to ask to paste if you tap the address bar or a blank field in a form, but another thing to keep having to say "no" so often.

This is the most annoying bug in FF I've come across, it's driving me nuts. Please fix when you can.

Hi, could you try the following and see if you are still getting the prompt?

Please navigate to Settings > Firefox > Paste From Other Apps. Then switch from Ask to Allow. Screenshot
