Character formatting lost on Copy/cut and paste

When you copy/cut and paste text, all character formatting is lost. For example, try cutting and pasting the text from one frame to another in the attached file. IMV, this operation should retain the character formatting.

So, to retain character formatting when copying frame text:

1. Click on the original frame text.
2. Do a standard copy or cut.
3. Click on a note, or another frame—text, vertical or horizontal.
4. Paste the clipboard.

What seems to be the case is that formatting is preserved when copying *an entire text object* - i.e., starting from normal as opposed to text edit mode. Formatting is lost when copying regions of text within a single text object while in text edit mode (even if that region happens to encompass the entire text object. At least, that's how it appears to me?
