It's a general issue with the list view class, I think. It doesn't do 
line-breaking on its own, and trying to manually insert one might be 
difficult. It might be a problem that other KDE/Qt apps have solved, 
though, so I'll look around.

The mouse-selection, middle-click to paste seems to work for me. Ctrl-c, 
ctrl-v don't, since they entry view isn't hooked up to the Copy/Cut/Paste 
menu commands. I suppose there's got to be a way to do that, though. I'll 
see if I can figure something out.
