I'm not sure why, but the JTextField object I'm using doesn't seem to be properly connected to the key events (maybe because I added a FocusListener?) - but adding the following code:

    searchTextField.addKeyListener(new java.awt.event.KeyListener() {
        public void keyPressed(KeyEvent e) {
            //System.out.println("KEY:"+e);
            if (e.getKeyCode() == 86 && ((e.getModifiers() & KeyEvent.CTRL_MASK) != 0)) {
                java.awt.datatransfer.Clipboard clipboard = java.awt.Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getSystemClipboard();
                java.awt.datatransfer.Transferable clipData = clipboard.getContents(clipboard);
                String s;
                try {
                    s = (String)(clipData.getTransferData(java.awt.datatransfer.DataFlavor.stringFlavor));
                } catch (Exception ex) {
                    s = ex.toString();
                }
                searchTextField.setText(s);
            }
        }
        public void keyReleased(KeyEvent e) {
        }
        public void keyTyped(KeyEvent e) {
        }
    });

...allows me to paste into the field.
