Yes.

Get a URL into the cut buffer, paste it onto the web browser canvas.

Has happened with Logitech, Microsoft and Dell mice.

MOA880 is the model number of the Dell mouse.

as the text editor?

Yes, and in the URL bar of the same web browser.

The problem is it appends the new URL to the existing one making
gibberish rather than overwriting it.  Pasting into the canvas instead
was always a way of saying "no, I want the new URL, not to edit the
existing one".
