Perhaps we should allow pasting from host into Whonix-Gateway by default in future versions?
Why? For copying and pasting of bridge information:

From https://www.whonix.org/wiki/VirtualBox_Guest_Additions#Clipboard_Sharing …
Clipboard sharing is disabled by default in the VirtualBox VM settings for Whonix-Gateway and Whonix-Workstation for security reasons.[3]
To prevent accidentally copying something (non-)anonymous and pasting it in its (non-)anonymous counter part (browser etc.), which would lead to identity correlation.
That reasoning doesn’t apply to stuff pasted into Whonix-Gateway. No client applications are supposed to be used there anyhow.
Any reasons against it?
