(I hope hope this is the right way to post to a mailing list!!)

As another datapoint, I have the same problem
in Zim on kde in Kubuntu 14.04 on multiple machines.
I notice that Hella Reide raised the same problem 19/May this year,
but I didn't see any reply or solution.

Middle-click works correctly in everything else.

For me, and I suspect for Hella
middle-click works within the same Zim page
and it works pasting from Zim to an outside kate/kwrite page,
but when you try to paste into another Zim page
nothing happens,
AND the buffer is cleared.

How do I know the buffer is cleared?
Because after trying to paste to another Zim page,
I can no longer paste to an external kate/kwrite page.

I don't think this is Jaap's problem - it is very platform specific.
But I have been trying to find a solution for a few year
and haven’t found one yet.

regards
mc
