There should be, please open a bugzilla. We can add similar keyboard
support.

In 2.0, this was up to the application. For 2.1, the intended solution is

Then you can adjust the position using the accessible handles. The initial
"constraint" of the pasted item will be up to the application to determine,
probably.
