Research direction
Investigate the indentation behavior during paste operation. Look at the Roslyn formatting engine code, especially the `Formatting` namespace. Check if there are any existing tests for paste operations. Consider reproducing the issue in the latest version. The issue was moved from Visual Studio developer community, so check for related issues or fixes in the Roslyn repository.
