While properly trying out REBL for the first time, getting copied S-expressions from the clipboard into the Code area proved to be a challenge.

That is because Control-V is bound to Focus View and nowhere in the keybindings documentation does it mention how to paste from the clipboard. Pasting is not available from either the Command Palette or context menus, while Cut/Copy is available from the context menus.

Cut and Copy works by "convention" as Control-X and Control-C, respectively, hence it's a bit confusing that Control-V doesn't paste.

However, I have discovered a short while ago that Shift-Insert works. Could it please be added to the keybindings documentation, especially since Control-V is already used for another action?

I realise that copying and pasting is not meant to be the primary means to interact with REBL, but for anyone trying it out, it could be a hurdle.
