While editing and fixing up code I have thought that sometimes it would be nice to be able to paste more than one thing at a time. For instance I was fixing up some WCF Rest code and I wanted to paste "Xml" sometimes and "Json" other times. These are easy to type, but a keyboard shortcut is much easier

Thus, is it possible to have multiple different items in the copy memory and then to paste them individually?

Use CTRL-Shift-V multiple times (until you have the text you want)
